/tg/Station 13

Should /tg/ have all the configs on default? Most if not all commiters base their opinions on what they see on /tg/ servers, harming any other person who will try to set up their own server, getting a 'broken' gameplay.

How does it break their game in particular?

I don't think we should necessarily have all config options on by default, but the default config that is listed on the codebase should probably match pretty closely with whatever the servers are running if only because we know that WORKS.

Also some of the config options should probably be removed for being worthless/never used/broken.

Also for reference here are all the current game options:

You can adjust the life levels when spessmen fall into crit and when they die

tg's config is the gold standard and what most coders aim to dev against.

I imagine most hosts want that config as a default as well

This is fine so long as the default configuration file mirrors the host's file, and not the other way around. You can have some auto-merge tool to keep the code's config up to date with the host.
