======Cookbooks======

Cookbooks are tools available only to the Instance Owner.  They provide the ability to deploy various optional configurations to your instance ; in short they set up certain features to work in ways you may desire.

GPHUD's design is to have a simple base with layers that can be added - Modules provide part of this via optional functionality, and Cookbooks provide the option to layer configurations together.

Cookbooks may be accessed at the bottom of the main GPHUD Configuration page in the website (below the list of Core and Optional modules).  Any user may click on the cookbooks here and a short overview will be given of the steps that will be taken when executing this cookbook, along with any possible warnings that may cause issues with the cookbook.

If everything looks okay, or you are prepared to manually correct (or accept) anything the cookbook can't do, click the DEPLOY COOKBOOK button.  A second copy of the 'steps' table will appear with the outcome of applying the changes in the final column.

At the time of writing, there are a few cookbooks:

  * ''User Changable Titler'' - This allows users to change their own titler text - it does this by creating a text attribute the user may edit themselves, adding this (template) to the default titler text and adding an alias and menu button for the end user to change their title text.
  * ''User Changable Title Color'' - This allows users to change their own titler text color.  It works similarly.
  * ''Allow Multiple Characters'' - allows users to have 5 characters each, which they may name themselves, and can switch between freely
  * ''Allow Self Retirement'' - allows users to retire ('kill' etc) their character anywhere, will add a "Retire Char" button to the main menu, which brings up a confirmation box before (irrevocably) retiring the character.
