TW Config
Parent: Configuration Index | Home
Use /tw config when you want intermediate-to-advanced, highly granular control over Tamework behavior.
Unlike /tw settings, this editor is built for per-family/per-asset tuning (role behavior, item bindings, progression rules, and system-level policy assets).
Who Should Use It
- Server owners, pack maintainers, and modders who are comfortable with config systems.
- Anyone tuning role-specific behavior beyond global defaults.
