[mohaa] Questions again!

Sat Sep 28 11:05:16 EDT 2002

Hello Ed,

I really don't know for certain.  I have noticed in the server log that
certain settings are applied well after the game server has begun its
initialization and that these settings happened to be in the server's
configuration file.  Perhaps the log file is created early in the
initialization process and its specifications must be announced as early in
that process as possible for them to be utilized.  This would leave the
command line as the logical place for these settings.  However, this is all
speculation on my part.  I honestly stopped looking at the issue when I
found what worked.
