Introduction[ | ]

In the xml files are all of the items and entitys of the game defined. How much damage they do, what you can do with them, how they are named, their behavior etc. Editing these is pretty simple, every texteditor is capable of that (although Notepad++ is recommended as it is a freeware and very handy too use).
However, doing this in an uncorrect manner can result in erros, ctd or simple wrong use of items in the game. To prevent that and to give a little help to everyone trying to alter their gameplay to their wishes, this section provides some explanations to the attributes in the xml files.
It is recommended to copy the xml and edit the copies, not the originals, in case something goes wrong. Alternatively one can usually download the latest xmls here.
