ASCTGlobalConfig file not reading correct .exe path #16

i modified the config file to read as follows: EXEPath": "C:\Ark\InstalledServers\ASA\Server 0\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\AsaApiLoader.exe", as you can see to load the AsaApiLoader.exe instead of the original but it dosent seem to read from the config file and instead loads from another config file, a config file i cannot locate. i assumed the config file was there so that i can specify a server to run but it dosent seem to be the case. is this intentional or am i missing some config/file of some sort that i need to edit instead?

ok, so in my less than infinate wisdon i have realised that in the config file its only specifying the path to what i presume is ArkAscendedServer.exe that (and again this is a presumtion) cannot be changed by the user meaning that it will only find the afforementiond .exe and nothing elase, namely AsaApiLoader.exe will not be seen by the program and therefor cannot be executed, am i on the rigt track and is there something that can be done or that i can do about this?

The tool does not provide the facility to launch anything other than the game server itself. There's currently no official way to make it launch an alternative server exe.

i'm guessing thats what that is then, never mind, its still a super useful tool to get things set up
