You may meet BackingFields in dnSpy but you don’t know what it is and how to fix?

BackingFields are generated by compiler because they use auto Properties like this

Code: 
public string Type { get; set; }

I think because some devs are lazy... I don’t know lol

This is how it looks like when editing getter. BackingField is red

And when you compile, you get the following errors

But it’s easy to fix, edit getter add a new field and return it with your field and compile. In this case, I add public bool isGlobal for IsGlobal

Edit setter, edit to (Type) = value; and compile

Done!
Now you can mod it like adding if-else statement for mod menu

if editing IL instructions there is no need to do this and it's usually faster if it's just a get or set method..

Only when its a get or set.
When you insert a Mod Menu it's not faster.
And with IL Instructions you can have many Issues too.
+ you don't learn how c# exactly works when you make only copy & paste IL Instructions.

I coded programs and games myself in c# so I know how it works, and I don't copy and paste the instructions I add them myself according to my own knowledge.

please try and make sure what you are saying about someone is correct before saying it or you'll end up being shown to be completely wrong as you have here.

Yes but this tutorial is for beginner/general modding/ for all, when you are familiar with c# then its logicly that you don't need it.
But this is not for ppl with high knowledge, more for beginner/general modding.
And "you" refers to the person as such, not to you. This should be obvious.

You have done it correcly. Maybe it just the game that makes change permanently by the feature. Usally restarting battle will apply your changes. Try other functions then.

this is actually not right. it has no effect at all. what i notice is that the added field has no use at all. anyways the name of the game ive been trying to mod is archero.
