        value0: node0.value,
        value1: node1.value,

    }),
);

// Await config load & handle problems

try {
    await $config.ready();
} catch (error) {
    if (!$config.reset) {
        // There's a problem with the arguments passed to the $Config constructor
        throw error;
    }

    // There's a problem with the user's data (could be from manual editing or a script update)
    if (!window.confirm(`${error.message}\n\nWould you like to erase your data?`)) {
        return;
    }
