All Settings

Settings overview

    • Auto update - Will automatically update the Save Date when the file is saved.

Character Sheet

Miscellaneous

  • Player Name - Entirely useless, game always sets it to Player1. Probably a relic of when the game supported split screen in story mode.

  • Highest Mission Info - All missions up to this one will be available for mission warping.
  • Is Nav System Enabled - Enables/Disables road arrows I believe.
  • Coins - The number of coins you have.
  • Itchy Scratchy CBG First/Itchy Scratchy Ticket - Related to talking to CBG to get the ticket after collecting all cards.
  • Persistent Object States - Breakable objects, coins and wasps. Maybe more things I haven't figured out yet.

Download

Source code: GitHub Repo.

Binaries: Mod Bakery.

Ayo ima use this the day before tomorrow
Where is the download button for the GUI program in the post?
I don't want decompiled source code, just a program that says what it's supposed to do. I've lost count of how many GitHub pages are just a pile of letters and numbers and it's driving me nuts because lots of the instructions on the pages are full of text blocks in the console font.

Please provide a download with NO console font text stuffed into the how to use pages

The "Binaries on Mod Bakery" link is what you'll want to use, under "latest version" you'll find a download button for a ZIP with the tool in it as required. A "binary" for a program tends to mean the actual functional thing in some capacity (like an EXE on Windows), I understand it isn't clear a lot of the time.
As Addy mentioned, the Mod Bakery link contains downloads for the compiles application, but so does GitHub under its Releases.
