Iron Core Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Where do I find the Iron Core config files?
Iron Core creates a folder called IronCore in your game's config directory. All settings for Iron Series addons are stored there in individual configuration files, one per addon.
Do I need Iron Core Mod if I only use one Iron Series addon?
Yes, Iron Core is required for any Iron Series addon to function. It acts as the base engine that manages settings and detects which addons you have installed.
How do I know which Iron Series addons Iron Core detected?
Check your game's debug log when you launch with Iron Core installed, or refer to the guide "Verify Which Iron Series Addons Are Detected" for step-by-step instructions on confirming detection.
Can I change hunger values for Iron Series food items?
Yes, open the config file for the specific addon (Iron Carrots, Iron Apples, etc.) in the IronCore folder and adjust the hunger point and saturation values, then restart your game.
How do I disable an Iron Series item without uninstalling the mod?
Open the config file for that addon in the IronCore folder and toggle the item switch to disabled, then restart your game. See "Enable or Disable Iron Series Items in Your World" for details.
Does Iron Core add its own items or blocks to my world?
No, Iron Core runs entirely in the background and only manages settings. It does not add any standalone items or blocks—only the Iron Series addons you install will add content.
What happens if I edit a config file while the game is running?
Changes to config files only take effect after you restart your game. Always close Minecraft before editing files in the IronCore folder.
Can I customize Iron Barrels block settings?
Yes, if you have Iron Barrels installed, open its config file in the IronCore folder to adjust block behavior and properties. See "Customize Block Settings for Iron Barrels" for specific options.
Will Iron Core slow down my game?
No, Iron Core is designed to run quietly in the background with minimal performance impact. It only processes settings at startup and when you manually change configs.
What should I do if Iron Core doesn't detect one of my installed Iron Series addons?
Verify the addon is properly installed in your mods folder, then restart your game. If detection still fails, check the game log for error messages and ensure Iron Core is up to date.
