Class configs

Class config files are CFG files that load specific settings for each class type in KAG. They are usually named "knight.cfg" or the name of the class and .cfg.

Example Configuration

An example knight.cfg might look like this:

 
name = Knight
emblem = GUI/knight_icon.png
 
actor_name = runner   
actor_config = 
actor_sprite_size = 32
actor_sprite_male = Sprites/knightMale.png
actor_sprite_female = Sprites/knightFemale.png
actor_heads_size = 16
actor_heads_male = Sprites/MaleHeads.png
actor_heads_female = Sprites/FemaleHeads.png    
 
default_health = 1.5
default_armor = 0.0    
 
stone_default = 0
wood_default = 0
gold_default = 0
arrows_default = 0
bombs_default = 0
 
stone_warmup = 0
wood_warmup = 0
gold_warmup = 0
arrows_warmup = 0
bombs_warmup = 0
