In order to boost your language server experience the following settings are recommended:

"kestudiocode.iec.lsp.codeLens.onLocalVariables": true,
"kestudiocode.iec.lsp.launch.autoRestart": true,
"kestudiocode.iec.lsp.launch.notifyOnCrash": true,
"kestudiocode.iec.lsp.developer.emitQueryDbBlocked": true

Semantic highlighting is enabled by default (depending on the configured theme). If you are not a fan, you can turn it off with the global setting:

"editor.semanticHighlighting.enabled": false

Set the following if you do not want kils to offer any kind of code snippets, like variable declarations, statements, blocks or type declarations, ...

"kestudiocode.iec.lsp.completion.enableSnippetInsertion": false
