 # The-Modding-Tree
 The main way to add content is through creating layers. You can either add a layer directly in the layers object in layersSupportjs,
 or declare it in another file and then do "`addLayer(layername, layerdata)`"
 (good for breaking things up into smaller files). The existing layers are just examples and can be freely deleted.
 You can also use them as references and a base for your own layers.
 The main way to add content is through creating layers. You can either add a layer directly in the layers object in [layerSupport.js](/js/layerSupport.js), or declare it in another file and register it by calling `addLayer(layername, layerdata)`. There is an example layer registration in [layers.js](/js/layers.js) showing the recommended method. It is just an example and can be freely deleted. You can also use it as a reference or a base for your own layers.

+The first thing you need to do is fill out the modInfo object at the top of [mod.js](/js/mod.js) to set your mod's name, ID (a string), and other information. A unique modId will prevent your mod's saves from conflicting with other mods. Note that changing this after people have started playing will reset their saves.
 unique modId will prevent your mod's saves from conflicting with other mods.
 Most of the time, you won't need to dive deep into the code to create things, but you still can if you really want to, for example to add new Vue components in [v.js](/js/v.js).
 The Modding Tree uses [break\_eternity.js](https://github.com/Patashu/break_eternity.js) to store large values. This means that many numbers are `Decimal` objects, and must be treated differently. For example, you have to use `new Decimal(x)` to create a `Decimal` value instead of a plain number, and perform operations on them by calling functions. e.g, instead of `x = x + y`, use `x = x.add(y)`. Keep in mind this also applies to comparison operators, which should be replaced with calling the `.gt`, `.gte`, `.lt`, `.lte`, `.eq`, and `.neq` functions. See the [break\_eternity.js](https://github.com/Patashu/break_eternity.js) docs for more details on working with `Decimal` values.
-Most of the time, you won't need to dive deep into the code to create things, but you still can if you really want to.
+Almost all values can be either a constant value, or a dynamic value. Dynamic values are defined by putting a function that returns what the value should be at any given time.

 Upgrades are stored in the following format:
 ```js
 upgrades: {

 ```
 Each upgrade should have an id where the first digit is the row and the second digit is the column.
 Individual upgrades can have these features:

 - style: **optional**. Applies CSS to this upgrade, in the form of an object where the keys are CSS attributes, and the values are the values for those attributes (both as strings).
 - layer: **assigned automagically**. It's the same value as the name of this layer, so you can do `player[this.layer].points` or similar.
 - id: **assigned automagically**. It's the "key" which the upgrade was stored under, for convenient access. The upgrade in the example's id is 11.
 By default, upgrades use the main prestige currency for the layer. You can include these to change them (but it needs to be a Decimal):
 - currencyDisplayName: **optional**, the name to display for the currency for the upgrade
 - currencyInternalName: **optional**, the internal name for that currency
 - currencyLayer: **optional**, the internal name of the layer that currency is stored in.
                 If it's not in a layer (like Points), omit. If it's not stored directly in a layer, instead use the next feature.
 - currencyLocation: **optional**, if your currency is stored in something inside a layer (e.g. a buyable's amount), you can access it this way.
                    This is a function returning the object in "player" that contains the value (like player[this.layer].buyables)
