Options file structure

Overview

Issue 12 introduced the ability to save in-game options. This article aims to document the format/syntax of the text files created. The /option_save and /option_save_file path commands save a text file, either in the installation folder or to a specified file path. The values in the file depend on what has been set in the Options Window or by the /Option_set command. Copied below are the contents of the default Options.txt file from when the game is initially installed.
