I find fs9.cfg somehow gets changed!

Curiouser and curiouser!

I have found in the past that the fs9.cfg file (running XP) somehow suddenly ends up with some of the TERRAIN variables getting changed seemingly all by themselves.

A while back I was doing some "look-seeing" and found that the TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS value had somehow gotten changed to some astronomical number up in the 1,200,000 range.

I recently decided to alter my TERRAIN_DEFAULT_RADIUS TERRAIN_EXTENDED_RADIUS
(to 5.0 and 8.0) and they were also at zero.
I have since read that others experienced this also.
In fact, some claim the zero is the default value for those items.
Anyway, 5.0 and 8.0 made a big improvement.

TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=900?
Mine is at  zero.
I will have to try 900. :)
