Easy Edit Editors:

Easy Edit will enable several editors, added to the same menu where you change all other mod loader features, accessed from the [Mod Content] button on the Into the Breach main menu screen.

In the List Editors you can change the lists the game has available to pick from when starting a new run. After exiting an editor, all the changes you have made will be saved and applied immediately. No restart is required (unless the world editor has warning symbols on it).

In the Island Editor you can change the lists that will be used to spawn items on each island.

In the World Editor you can change which island will spawn in which location.

Mods can add items to these lists. The player can also manually adjust these lists through the UI in the various list editors. Lists that are in their default state will have a grayed-out button next to them; lists that have been modified from their default state by the player or by mods adding items to them will have a red button next to them, which will return the list to its default state if clicked twice. The master "default" button will also reset all lists, and become active if any lists have been edited.

Lists that are in their default state will automatically update if mods that add items to those lists are added or removed. Lists that have been modified from their default state will not automatically update.

Note that the vanilla lists are locked and only items flagged as "default" can be added to them. Lists created by mods can be added to by other mods, or add items from other mods, as long as the second mod has requirements = {first mod} in its definition.

To add a "default" item to a list, see the corresponding entry for that list type, but alter the syntax to include ._default when using the add method:

local missionList = easyEdit.missionList:get("archive")
missionList.addMission(missionList._default , "missionId", LOW_THREAT)

Note: If there are any missing items in any lists (from disabled mods for instance), the lists will not be applied in an attempt to prevent crashes
