^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Configuration for OpenMW is composed from several sources.
First comes the local or global ``openmw.cfg``.
After that, any ``openmw.cfg`` files in any other directories specified with the ``config`` option are added.
Finally, options specified on the command line are used – any option that can be specified as ``option=value`` in ``openmw.cfg`` can also be specified as ``--option=value`` or ``--option value`` on the command line for the engine (but not other OpenMW tools).
From lowest to highest priority, these are:
* The local or global ``openmw.cfg``.
* Any ``openmw.cfg`` files in any other directories specified with the ``config`` option.
* Options specified on the command line.
.. tip::
Any option that can be specified as ``option=value`` in ``openmw.cfg`` can also be specified as ``--option=value`` or ``--option value`` on the command line for the engine (but not other OpenMW tools).
The command line is always the highest-priority source, even if it specifies extra configuration directories with ``--config``.
This lets you quickly test with extra options even if you're not using your normal configuration directories.
