@egwarhammer, if I edit that file in Notepad while the game is open, do I have to restart the game for my changes to take effect?
The short answer is yes.
Here's the copy/paste longer version:

I've only done it with the game not running. Nervous Nellie about things like that.
From DP:
Changes made to the file will most likely not be picked-up while the game is running because most of the stuff in my game is cached for performance. Settings are all cached. Changing them on the computer updates them immediately for the most part, because I change the cached value in addition to the setting on the file. Sorry, you text-editing junkies!!
