MTW2 Multiplayer Campaign

Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I know the medieval2.config file is read/written each time the game is started (hence the need to make it read only to keep any changes made to it), thus if we were to change the hotseat part in the config file to make it so hotseat_scrolls = true, wouldn't the game consider it so from now on ?

I truly hope I won't be proven wrong but i'm hopeless

when it comes to modding so...

Or si the config file read every time a campaign is started... This would in fact need to start anew, something I won't even consider...

Any ideas welcome on the subject...

Config is read each time the game is started, but for hotseat, these components are saved into the savegame the first time it is run.

Thus you can have no mp/hotseat lines in your cfg at all (such as me) and still run the savegame just fine.

What if the starting player modified its config ?

Or is it in the save whoever modifies the config. ?

The config options for MP are saved into the savegame the moment it is run the first time. Afterwards, you can have any option that is MP specific in your config and it won't affect this running game anymore.
