Description

Library that easily allows mod developers to create custom options using vanilla's systems, and add options to vanilla's option screens.

Code example:

public class MyMod implements ClientModInitializer { private static final OptionInstance<Boolean> OPTION = ...; public static OptionInstance<Boolean> option() { return OPTION; } @Override public void onInitializeClient() { Identifier optionId = Identifier.fromNamespaceAndPath("modid", "custom_option"); VanillaOptionsAPI.register(optionId, OptionsMenuLocation.ACCESSIBILITY, MyMod::option); } }

The following would add a boolean option that saves to options.txt as modid.custom_option, appearing in the accessibilty options menu.
