I've always had issues with Config files that don't give any value at all. When I formerly used a boolean system, all times I did config.variable == True or config.varaible == False it doesn't do anything. When I switched to ints also tend to fail if checks as well such as Config.variable == 1 even if it is set to 1 in the config system.

I know my config file is supposed to be a boolean system and not 0 or 1 but the boolean system doesn't work at all with the problems mentioned above.

public class Config {
	public static double VilPerDoor;
	public static int MateAgain;
	public static int twins;
	public static int enableDrops;
	public static int enableVillages;
	public static int VillageDistance;
	public static int overwriteOriginalVillagers;
	public static int enableIvTexture;
	
	public final static Config instance = new Config();
	
	public void load(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)
	{
	Configuration config = new Configuration(event.getSuggestedConfigurationFile());
	config.load();
	twins = config.getInt("Twin Chance", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 3, 0, 100, "Set this to the chance for the villagers to have twins. Set to 0 if you want to disable this.");
	VilPerDoor = config.get(Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, "Villagers per Door", 1.0, "Set this to the number of villagers per door. Unmodded: 0.35(almost 3 doors for one villager), Mod Default: 1.0 (one door per villager)").getDouble(1.0);
	enableIvTexture = config.getInt("Enable Iv Texture", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "Set this to 1 to enable this mod's villager texture, disable this if you don't like this mod's textures or you want resource packs to work with this mod's villagers.");
	MateAgain = config.getInt("Mate Again", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "Set this to 1 if you want a chance(1/3) that villagers to be willing to mate again after mating.");
	enableDrops = config.getInt("Enable Villager Drops", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, villager drops will be enabled.");
	overwriteOriginalVillagers = config.getInt("Override Original Villagers?", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, then villagers will be overridden by the mod.");
	enableVillages = config.getInt("Enable Villages", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, this mod's villages will be enabled. Should fix village incompatibilities with other mods");
	VillageDistance = config.getInt("Village Distance", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 24, 2, 1024, "For each of this number of blocks, a village will try to spawn, Unmodded:32. This is will not do anything if Enable Villages is set to 1");
	if (config.hasChanged())
	{
		config.save();
	}
	}
}

Where it is loaded by the main class.

@EventHandler
	public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent e) {
	   proxy.preInit(e);
	   Config.instance.load(e);
	}

	@EventHandler
	public void init(FMLInitializationEvent e) {
	    proxy.init(e);
	}

	@EventHandler
	public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent e) {
	    proxy.postInit(e);
	}

Well, none of your config options are booleans, they're all integers.

 

if(1 == True) //is false, assuming it even compiles

I meant the boolean checks were part of the original config file before I changed it to an int based system. The current system is this:

if (Config.enableVillages == 1)

 

The boolean check in the first is an example of the former system that didn't save before I switched to an int based system that didn't save either.

I edited the first post to clarify this.

Doing a println in my client and common proxy has shown that MC always does my ints as 0.

		System.out.println(Config.enableDrops);

Even though my config file is set to 1.

  # If this is set to 1, villager drops will be enabled. [range: 0 ~ 1, default: 1]
    I:"Enable Villager Drops"=1

    # If this is set to 1, this mod's villages will be enabled. Should fix village incompatibilities with other mods [range: 0 ~ 1, default: 1]
    I:"Enable Villages"=1

public class Config {
	public static double VilPerDoor;
	public static int MateAgain;
	public static int twins;
	public static int enableDrops;
	public static int enableVillages;
	public static int VillageDistance;
	public static int overwriteOriginalVillagers;
	public static int enableIvTexture;
	
	public final static Config instance = new Config();
	
	public void load(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)
	{
	Configuration config = new Configuration(event.getSuggestedConfigurationFile());
	config.load();
	twins = config.getInt("Twin Chance", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 3, 0, 100, "Set this to the chance for the villagers to have twins. Set to 0 if you want to disable this.");
	VilPerDoor = config.get(Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, "Villagers per Door", 1.0, "Set this to the number of villagers per door. Unmodded: 0.35(almost 3 doors for one villager), Mod Default: 1.0 (one door per villager)").getDouble(1.0);
	enableIvTexture = config.getInt("Enable Iv Texture", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "Set this to 1 to enable this mod's villager texture, disable this if you don't like this mod's textures or you want resource packs to work with this mod's villagers.");
	MateAgain = config.getInt("Mate Again", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "Set this to 1 if you want a chance(1/3) that villagers to be willing to mate again after mating.");
	enableDrops = config.getInt("Enable Villager Drops", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, villager drops will be enabled.");
	overwriteOriginalVillagers = config.getInt("Override Original Villagers?", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, then villagers will be overridden by the mod.");
	enableVillages = config.getInt("Enable Villages", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 1, 0, 1, "If this is set to 1, this mod's villages will be enabled. Should fix village incompatibilities with other mods");
	VillageDistance = config.getInt("Village Distance", Configuration.CATEGORY_GENERAL, 24, 2, 1024, "For each of this number of blocks, a village will try to spawn, Unmodded:32. This is will not do anything if Enable Villages is set to 1");
	if (config.hasChanged())
	{
		config.save();
	}
	}
}

And yet it is extremely random if something is enabled or not.

Solution Found - I was loading my config file after my proxies causing the issues.
