 == Overview ==
 [[OXPConfig]] is more or less only a Interface to give OXPs the possibility to let users change, load and store settings in the game. It does it only for OXPs which are including the necessary data (and if the OXP is in the database for performance reasons). This way it's still up to the OXPers to decide if they want user settings or not. In most cases it's really easy to implement the data and usually only needs a few lines of code.

 It declares a array with 20 elements in the format [ [[c0-color1],[c0-color2]], ... ] and a missionVariable <tt>.genericUserColors</tt>. OXPs can get a instance of this array
-{{CodeEx|codeex=this.myColors = worldScripts.OXPConfig.genericUserColors;}}
+  this.myColors = worldScripts.OXPConfig.genericUserColors;
 A simple example could look like:
-{{CodeEx|codeex=this.startUp = function(){
+  this.startUp = function(){
-:this.myColor = [ ["grayColor","greenColor"] ];
+    this.myColor = [ ["grayColor","greenColor"] ];

+    newTarget.scannerDisplayColor1 = this.myColor[0][0];
-this.shipTargetAcquired = function(newTarget)
+    newTarget.scannerDisplayColor2 = this.myColor[0][1];
+  };
 The example defines a default array which is used if neither array, nor the related mV is available. Then it checks if OXPConfig is installed - if so it delays the access (here <tt>.shipWillLaunchFromStation</tt>) to avoid loading order stuff without the need of a timer and grabs the reference. If a user changes the settings through OXPConfigs GUI the references will be automagically updated as well without any callback/registering or constant checking (associative array). If no OXPConfig is installed (= array unavailable), it tries to get the data from the mV.
