== Struct ==
Below is the initialized version of the HelperFunctions struct. For the definition of the struct, you can find that in [https://github.com/X-Hax/sadx-mod-loader/blob/master/SADXModLoader/include/SADXModInfo.h SADXModInfo.h]

== Properties ==

=== Mod Loader Version ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
int ModLoaderVer;
</syntaxhighlight>

This returns the version of the mod loader. This can be used to check if the user has an old version of the mod loader that may not have functionality your mod requires.

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
if (globalHelperFunctions.ModLoaderVer <= 10)
PrintDebug("This Mod Loader is way out of date.\n");
</syntaxhighlight>
<hr>

=== Mod Loader Settings ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
LoaderSettings loaderSettings;
</syntaxhighlight>

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">

</syntaxhighlight>
<hr>

=== Mod List ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
std::vector<Mod> modlist;
</syntaxhighlight>

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">

</syntaxhighlight>
<hr>

=== Weight Functions ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
BasicWeightFuncs weightFuncs;
</syntaxhighlight>

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">

</syntaxhighlight>

== Functions ==

=== Register Start Position ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
static void RegisterStartPosition(unsigned char character, const StartPosition& position)
</syntaxhighlight>

Registers a new Start Position for the specified character.

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
StartPosition myStageStartPos = {
1, // Level ID
0, // Act ID
{ 100.0f, 200.0f, 100.0f }, // Position
0 // Y Rotation
};

// We pass our StagePosition variable as a pointer to this function
// and we have specified Sonic, so the level for this ID would now use
// our StartPosition instead of the original.
globalHelperFunctions.RegisterStartPosition(Characters_Sonic, &myStageStartPos);
</syntaxhighlight>
<hr>

=== Clear Start Position List ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
static void ClearStartPositionList(unsigned char character)
</syntaxhighlight>

Clears the Start Positions for the specified character.

==== Example ====
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
// Running this inside of your mod's Init export would
// clear all of Sonic's Start Positions for his stages.
globalHelperFunctions.ClearStartPositionList(Characters_Sonic);
