Config/Settings Save file

As title, a config file should be added somewhere which will store

1) all settings, this includes mouse settings, commander tips off etc, your player name whatever
2) all keybindings
3) all graphic settings
4) all sound settings

As one config file, so we can copy this config file and if we ever go elsewhere to play ns2 or need it for other reasons we can simply copy/paste the single file and restore EVERYTHING. Idk if it's hard to implement but it'll be extremely useful in my opinion

    This file already exist in steam/userdata/<your steam id>/4920/remote/options.xml

    If you are looking for bindings set with the "bind" console command you can find them in %appdata%/Natural Selection 2/ConsoleBindings.json
    Favourites servers are stored in this directory too.

    If you copy/paste it to another ns2 directory elsewhere it doesn't work afaik, only seems to sync on your computers steam cloud w/e say you want to LAN and you bring the files with you, they don't work on another account if the cloud is off (not 100% sure)

    You can't play NS2 in offline mode, so presumably this LAN has internet access. Login with your account and it'll sync your files.

    anyway might be wrong on that point, but the idea is to have everything in one file (if possible) I just think it's a great thing to have for that reason (also config sharing, like just giving a friend your config file and they're ready to go)

    You can put your "options.xml" file on another steam user directory and it will load
