- # The Command Line
-
- BSIPA has 2 command lines: the installer, and the game.
-
- Their documentation is below.
-
- # [The Installer (`IPA.exe`)](#tab/installer)
-
- The installer has quite a few options, which are documented inline with the `-h` or `--help` flag.
-
- This is what it currently looks like:
-
- >
- > [!code[IPA command line](_ipa_command_line.txt "the result of IPA.exe -h")]
- >
-
- # [The Game](#tab/game)
-
- The game *also* gets quite a few command line options, though there isn't anything as convenient as a help page for them.
-
- Here's a quick list of what they are and what they do.
-
- - `--debug`
- >
- > Enables the loading of debug information in Mono. The debugging information must be in the portable PDB format,
- > in the same location as the DLL that it's for.
- >
- > This option also forces BSIPA to show all debug messages in the console, as well as where they were called.
- >
- > This overrides the config settings `Debug.ShowDebug` and `Debug.ShowCallSource`.
- >
- - `--mono-debug`
- >
- > Enables the built-in Mono soft debugger engine.
- >
- > By default, it acts as a client, and requires that there be a soft
- > debugger server running on port 10000 on `localhost`.
- >
- > Implies `--debug`.
- >
- - `--server`
- >
- > Does nothing on its own.
- >
- > When paired with `--mono-debug`, this option makes the Mono soft debugger act in server mode. It begins listening on
- > port 10000 on any address, and will pause startup (with no window) until a debugger is connected. I reccommend using
- > SDB, but that is a command line debugger and a lot of people don't care for those.
- >
- - `--no-yeet`
- >
- > Disables mod yeeting.
- >
- > By default, whenever BSIPA detects that the game is now running a newer version than previous runs, it will move all
- > mods to another folder and not load them. (They still get checked for updates though.) When this is enabled, that
- > behaviour is disabled.
- >
- > Overrides the config setting `YeetMods`.
- >
- - `--condense-logs`
- >
- > Reduces the number of log files BSIPA will output for a given session.
- >
- > By default, BSIPA will create a subfolder in the `Logs` folder for each mod sublog, as well as each mod. This disables
- > that behaviour, and restricts it to only create a global log and mod logs.
- >
- > Overrides the config setting `Debug.CondenseModLogs`.
- >
- - `--no-updates`
- >
- > Disables automatic updating.
- >
- > By default, BSIPA will check [BeatMods](http://beatmods.com) for all of the loaded mods to see if there is a new version
- > avaliable. If there is, it will be downloaded and installed on the next run. This flag disables that behaviour.
- >
- > Overrides the config settings `Updates.AutoCheckUpdates` and `Updates.AutoUpdate`.
