Hi. I store my configs in separate directory and use links. But ddnet client overwrite my link with file. This makes me sad :cry: Because all other software work fine with links. If I remember right, ddnet client makes backup while saving settings but why does it move/remove original settings_ddnet.cfg? Deen? :)

Because we had the problem that for some people the client crashed while writing the new settings_ddnet.cfg, thus destroying their config. So we open a new file and rename it to "settings_ddnet.cfg", instead of following the potential symlink in settings_ddnet.cfg. But since I didn't hear about that bug for a while, I guess we fixed it somewhere else already, so the workaround might not be necessary anymore. Removed it: https://git.io/vQFUT
