As I said, Ditto takes the form of other racers, and also copies their color by default. Also, Ditto will, by default, always copy its target stats. This takes hostmod's restat into account, so Ditto will take the same stats as its 'restated' target. Also, restating your Ditto won't change that: by default the copy ability will always copy the target's stats, so that your restat on Ditto will only affect its base form. Note that this is the default behavior and that it can be a bit tweaked with the script's built-in commands.

Also, if the server Ditto is installed on has Horns, Ditto will take those into account, and automatically change its horn to the same one has the target.

This is the server-wise command. Use it to set the default gameplay behavior of Ditto players.



Called without any parameter, the current state of the server config will be displayed in the console. Call it with a setting's name as a parameter to toggle that settings.

As of v1.0 the settings are:
`keep_color`
if on, the ditto will keep there skin color after morph.
`no_random`
when on, the ditto won't morph into a randomly picked racer at the beginning of the race.
`copy_once`
when on, the ditto will only morph once per race (and wont demorph until the end of the race)
`keep_restat`
if Hostmod's restat is used on the server, any restat will also apply after morph ('restat' command + 'keep_restat' setting set to 'on' is the only way a ditto will ignore the target's stat when morphing)
`ignore_team`
the setting is tied to 'FriendMod'. If it is installed on the server, when a team battle starts, by default, ditto won't change color (even with `keep_color` set to 'off'). With the `ignore_team` set to 'on' ditto will copy the color of the target, ignoring the current team race. (If a server hosts the mod alongside Ditto, I recommend to lock this setting to 'Off', unless they like utter chaos and confusion, ofc)
`battle_dead_copy`
this setting is a bit special, as only server can change it. By default, in battle mode, dittos can't copy players that are ghosts (i.e. out of bumpers). When this settings in set to 'on', they can do so.

For example, if you open the console as admin and call:
ditto_server_config keep_color
it'll toggle the 'keep_color' setting.
If server calls:
ditto_server_config keep_restat on
it'll turn on the 'keep_restat' setting.
ditto_server_config keep_restat off
will turn it off.

Server config are merly 'default settings' for ditto players. These settings will be set as the default for joining players, but won't affect already joined players, that have the liberty of changing these settings for themselves, on their end.

However, the server can force a particular setting on a particular configuration, by 'locking' specific settings with the sub-command 'lock'. For example, if the server calls:
ditto_server_config keep_color on
then
ditto_server_config keep_color lock
the 'keep_color' setting will be force to 'on' for every ditto player, and they won't be able to change it back on their side. ( Also server can unlock it later by calling `ditto_server_config keep_color unlock` )

This is the player-wise command. An individual ditto player can use it to change gameplay settings for themselves, unless said setting has been 'locked' by server (and on the exception of the 'battle_dead_copy' setting, which players can't tamper with). Settings are the same that the ones used by the `ditto_server_config` command (except for `battle_dead_copy`, as explained): `keep_color`, `no_random`, `copy_once`, `keep_restat`, and `ignore_team`.



Called without any parameter, a player can check his current ditto configuration. As with the server-wise command, called with a setting's name, a player can change his own ditto configuration (unless, once again, the particular setting has been locked by the server).

For example, if a player calls:
ditto_config keep_color
it'll toggle his 'keep_color' setting.
If he calls:
ditto_config keep_color on
his 'keep_color' setting will be set to 'on', and he will retain his skincolor on every morph (unless the server said otherwise).
