Remote Configuration & Feature Flags

Remote Config lets you toggle features, adjust parameters, and push different configurations to different player segments—all without a game update.

See the SDK Remote Config guide for GDScript integration with fetch_remote_config(), get_config(), and Game Data tables.

Creating Config Keys

1. Go to Live Ops > Remote Config
2. Click New Key and define:
   • Name: enable_new_shop
   • Type: Boolean, String, Number, or JSON
   • Default Value: false
   • Description: What this controls
3. Click Save

Value Types

Type	Example	Use Case
Boolean	true/false	Feature toggles
String	"easy", "hard"	Difficulty presets
Number	1.5, 100	Multipliers, thresholds
JSON	{"min": 10, "max": 50}	Complex configs

Fetching Config in Game

# Get a single value
var shop_enabled = await QuestData.get_config("enable_new_shop", false)

if shop_enabled:
  show_shop()

# Get multiple values at once
var config = await QuestData.get_config_batch([
  "enable_new_shop",
  "difficulty_multiplier",
  "daily_login_reward"
])

var shop_active = config["enable_new_shop"]       # Boolean
var difficulty = config["difficulty_multiplier"]  # Number (default 1.0)

Scheduled Changes

Schedule config changes for specific times:

1. Open a config key
2. Click Schedule Change
3. Set time (e.g., “Apr 10, 2026 at 10:00 UTC”)
4. Enter new value
5. Click Schedule

At the scheduled time, all games automatically pick up the new value.

Segment Overrides

Override config for specific player groups:

1. Go to Remote Config
2. Select a config key
3. Click Add Segment Override
4. Choose a segment (e.g., “new_players”, “whales”)
5. Enter override value
6. Click Save

Now players tagged as “new_players” see a different value than everyone else.

# This value respects segment overrides
var reward = await QuestData.get_config("daily_login_reward")
# VIP players get 2x reward via segment override
