Are there supposed to be 3 different settings files? #40

There are currently 3 different settings files for this mod:

I can see a reason for a default config and a user config but what about the third one? Are all of these 3 supposed to be there?

Whoopsie… I let this one pass trough…

Well, yes.

The kspdir/GameData/DistantObject/Settings.cfg is the global configuration file, where settings about the setup itself is stored. User has not access to these values, they are meant to be customised by MM patches.

The kspdir/GameData/DistantObject/PluginData/Settings.cfg is the template with default values for user's configurations. Everytime you click "Default" or the user's configuration file is missing, this file is loaded instead.

The kspdir/PluginData/DistantObject/Settings.cfg is the user's configuration file. To tell you the true, it's on the wrong place - it should be placed inside he user's save, so they can customise DOE on a savegame basis - not to mention that the settings will be sync'ed with cloud services.

In a way or another, https://github.com/net-lisias-ksp/DistantObject/issues/41 .

Cheers!
