====== Settings ======

===== Config.wtf =====

  * Can be pasted empty first-launch, and below existing options to override
  * :?: Fullscreen borderless for first-launch might be required on Wayland to avoid partial-fullscreen first launch with cinematic/TOS ((it starts stretched ''1024x768'' but proper fullscreen res in-game works fine))
  * 2025/12/17: ''gxCursor 0'' fixes flickering cursor ((might be an ''i915'' or GNOME/Wayland thing; cursor feels //slightly// less-responsive but playable))
