The game_settings.tbl, also known as mod.tbl, defines options that can be changed globally.
This table is one of the Modular Tables and can be extended with xxx-mod.tbm
Contents

$Cutscene Camera Disables HUD:

#OTHER SETTINGS
Optional. This group contains miscellaneous settings.
$Fixed Turret Collisions:

- Syntax: Boolean
- Default Value: NO
$Damage Impacted Subsystem First:
If set, a hit to a physical subsystem will always deal damage to that subsystem first, even if another subsystem is closer to the point of impact. By default, the closest subsystem will always receive damage first.
- Syntax: Boolean
- Default Value: NO
$Default ship select effect:
- This specifies which effect to use for ship select animations when no .ani can be found, or the -ship_choice_3d commandline flag is active. This will default to the FS2 effect.
- Possible options are "FS1" and "off"
$Default weapon select effect:
- This specifies which effect to use for weapon select animations when no .ani can be found, or the -weapon_choice_3d commandline flag is active. This will default to the FS2 effect.
