I am planning to make mods soon and this is a request to make it easier for me and other first time modders. 

If one thing gets in the way of testing there should be a way to temporarily disable it.  For example if I make something wrong and it is causing problems then i can disable that section.

 

This is a request for it to either be added to Forge or another mod to be created.  Thank you for reading.

You can always rename it from something.jar/zip to something like something.jar/zip.disabled.  As long as the file extension is not jar/zip.

And if you're meaning in code itself, you can always comment it out. You can use /* to define the beginning of the code you'd like to disable, and you can use */ to define the end of the code you'd like to disable.

Examples:

 

Enabled Code:

Let's say this were some code...

... And this is the end of the code that you want to disable.

 

Disabled Code:

/*Let's say this were some code...
... And this is the end of the code that you want to disable.*/

 

This is of course assuming that the code you're disabling isn't being relied on by another part of your code...

 

Wtf is wrong with me? Why did I not read the thread title the first time around? Please ignore me.
