Info
modules/Config
The Config namespace contains settings such as:
- automatic updater preferences
- window position and mode
- enabled log levels and alert preferences
- which tabs are visible in Home
- local packages to be loaded when joining a multiplayer game
- overall pixel density setting for the renderer
- audio backend preferences
- folders for locating IWADs and other packages
UIState
Persistent state for UI widgets so it can be restored in the future. Used for example for remembering console commands entered in the past.
Restoring all settings to defaults
One can delete persist.pack to force the engine to restore all settings to defaults. (All settings saved in persist.pack, that is.)
The -reset option can also be used to do this. (1.11 →)
