Launcher is unaware of --replace
For list-like settings (e.g. the data
and content
lists) you can add them to the replace
list and then instead of composing them from lower-priority config sources, the list will be replaced. For example, if you specify the following command line, you'll just end up with Morrowind.esm
loaded no matter what's in the user, global and local openmw.cfg
:
openmw --replace content --content Morrowind.esm
This can also be done via the config files, so if you specify replace=content
in the user openmw.cfg
, it'll knock out any content files specified in the global and local openmw.cfg
s.
If you do that, while the engine will ignore the relevant entries, the launcher will still treat them as any others, and display the contents of any data directories and tick any content files from the low-priority source.
I'd intended to implement this as part of !1076 (merged), but it got merged before that happened, and then I've not had time to do it since then. I'm putting it on the tracker so it doesn't get forgotten forever.
