Thanks for the feedback. It makes a short plugins.ini list from base system. Nothing unreleased. This happens just before the map is loaded however it is called. Using natives makes it more of a project to install for admin as well as all the work involved with cache manipulation configs. Both too complex for regular admins to install. Those are deterrents. When host has myriad of plugins typing out disabled alongside each one in the built-in ini system is not going to work, it is loaded too late. In fact avoiding use of it by-and-large except for adding a plugin back by prefix on occasion and use this 1 file instead of many option instead is safer than removing cache items IMHO. Windows has a safe mode which loads a minimal set of drivers. Name was inspired by that. There are no third party plugins forced and hard coded anywhere. Users make their own safe_mode.ini or don't. If you are talking about a piece of my for the sake of an example config, that's what eg means. Users make their own. Just list the map name. Add up to 12 plugins to sandbox. True safemode would be starting with no plugins then adding one at a time. It is much easier to manage on 1 file. Precaching is not the only way. It takes something away from the map I thought.
