Describe the Issue

Description:
The mod crashes on startup with a NullPointerException when trying to read the config file. The issue appears to be recurring - it can be temporarily fixed by deleting the config file and restarting, but the problem returns after a few days of gameplay.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Play normally with the mod installed
  2. After a few days, the mod will crash on startup
  3. Delete config file and restart to temporarily fix
  4. Issue recurs after several more days of gameplay

  • Mod Version: ForgivingVoid 21.1.2
  • NeoForge Version: 21.1.119
  • Java Version: 21.0.5
  • Operating System: Windows 11

Additional Context:

  • The error occurs during mod initialization
  • The config appears to become corrupted or invalid over time

This should be fixed in Balm 21.0.31+. It now logs an error when this would happen instead of crashing, to help locate the underlying issue.
