Config won't save changes outside of in-game edits.

I have a plugin I am working on, and whenever I edit the config.yml and reload the server, it resets the config file to its state before reloading. This is probably a dumb question, but I am new to bukkit coding :-/ Here is my code:

Code:java

package com.mcmastery.lotrcraft;
 
import java.util.List;
 
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class Main extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
        saveDefaultConfig();
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
        getLogger().info("LotRCraft by MCMastery has been enabled.");
    }
 
    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
        if (label.equalsIgnoreCase("lotr") && args.length == 0) {
            sender.sendMessage("LotRCraft by MCMastery. Type " + ChatColor.BOLD + "/lotr help "
                    + ChatColor.RESET + "for plugin help.");
        }
        else if (label.equalsIgnoreCase("lotr") && args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("help")) {
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "=====LotRCraft Help=====");
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GRAY + "" + ChatColor.BOLD  + "/lotr races " + ChatColor.WHITE
                    + "Lists the current LotRCraft races");
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GRAY + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "/lotr info <Race> " + ChatColor.WHITE
                    + "Displays the info of race <Race>");
        }
        else if (label.equalsIgnoreCase("lotr") && args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("races")) {
            List<String> rules = this.getConfig().getStringList("races");
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "=====LotRCraft Races=====");
            for (String s : rules) {
                s = ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', s);
                sender.sendMessage(s);
            }
        }
 
        return true;
    }
 
    public void onDisable() {
        saveConfig();
        getLogger().info("LotRCraft by MCMastery has been disabled.");
    }
}
 

But, if I make a command that edits the config.yml, and I run that command and reload the server, it will save the edits the command did!

 

Code:

public void onDisable() {
    saveConfig();
}

That saves the config in memory to the file, which overwrites anything in the file that was changed since the plugin used reloadConfig().

So I should remove saveConfig()?

 

Moved to the correct forum.

 

Still need help for this? MCMastery

 

badboysteee98 Thank you, but I have figured it out.
