'''Global configurations''' are intended to be used in place of '''quest-specific configurations'''. This helps reduce repetition across your configuration as you copy common elements from quest to quest, and also allows you to quickly propagate edits across quests.

== Global task configuration ==
A global task configuration will add configuration values to all tasks of a specified type.

For example (in <code>config.yml</code>),
```yaml
...
global-task-configuration:
  types:
    inventory:
      update-progress: true
...
```

This will add to ''all'' tasks configurations with <code>type: inventory</code> across ''all'' quests the following: <code>update-progress: true</code>. '''Note that any errors coming from here will appear as if they are coming from individual quests.''

Quest-level configurations will override anything set here. To change this behaviour, modify the [[Basic options#Global task configuration override|global task configuration override]].

== Global quest display configuration ==
A global quest display configuration adds text to the display items of items in the GUI.

By default, this is already configured:
```yaml
global-quest-display:
  lore:
    append-not-started:
      - ""
      - "&eLeft Click &7to start this quest."
    append-started:
      - ""
      - "&aYou have started this quest."
      - "&eMiddle Click &7to track this quest."
      - "&eRight Click &7to cancel this quest."
    append-tracked:
      - ""
      - "&aYou are &etracking &athis quest."
      - "&eMiddle Click &7to stop tracking this quest."
      - "&eRight Click &7to cancel this quest."
```

If you do not want this, simply remove the section.

== Global macros ==
Global macros are designed to help you reduce repetition across your configuration files by centralizing values in your config.yml. Think of them as your own variables/placeholders which you can use in your quest files.

To explain this feature, an example is more appropriate.

In your config.yml, you can add a macro under the <code>global-macros</code> section:
```
global-macros:
  ...
  # <name of macro>: <string value of macro>
  top-bar: "&6---&7---&6---"
```

To use these in your quests, simply reference it by using <code><nowiki><$m name-of-macro $m></nowiki></code>. Macro names '''cannot have spaces'''.

For example, to use the <code>top-bar</code> macro in <code>example-quest.yml</code>:
```yaml
tasks:
  ...
display:
  ...
  lore-normal:
    - "<$m top-bar $>"
    - "..."
  ...
```
