	The OPTIONS lump has the same format as eternity.cfg: A text file listing option names and values, optionally separated by blank or comment lines.

The OPTIONS lump has the same format as eternity.cfg: A text file listing option names and values, optionally separated by blank or comment lines. Eternity.cfg indicates options which are allowed to be set in wads, with asterisks (*).

	Wad authors are urged to use these options responsibly, because they should not be used to limit players, but to enhance the game. Many options such as automap colors are allowed to be set from wads, but they should only be done so if there are strong reasons to do so. More recommended to enforce are the compatibility (comp_) settings, because certain map effects (such as moving floor combinations) may depend on them to work properly. [[Linked portals]] for example require the setting "comp_overunder 0" in order to work, and in addition, due to Doom's default definition of solid static decorations, it is recommended to also set "comp_theights 0".

More recommended to enforce are the compatibility (comp_) settings, because certain map effects (such as moving floor combinations) may depend on them to work properly. [[Linked portals]] for example require the setting "comp_overunder 0" in order to work (and in fact enforce it as such, even if set otherwise by user), and in addition, due to Doom's default definition of solid static decorations, it is recommended to also set "comp_theights 0" (which itself is not enforced by portals).

	If a wad with OPTIONS lump is loaded, it will not overwrite the user configuration file.		If a wad with OPTIONS lump is loaded, it will not overwrite the user configuration file.
