The parser for the mission header section of the server config seems rather limited:
- Cannot parse numbers without periods for float attributes
- Cannot parse true and false for boolean attributes

Steps To Reproduce
I created and published a test mod with the ID 5EAC510A8E6EC623, which contains the following code and in essence defines a float and boolean attribute for the mission header and prints their values in the chat for all clients:
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
modded class SCR_MissionHeader : MissionHeader
{
[Attribute(defvalue: "11.0", desc: "My mission header float variable")]
float m_fMHT_myFloatVariable;
[Attribute(defvalue: "false", desc: "My mission header boolean variable")]
bool m_bMHT_myBooleanVariable;
}
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
modded class SCR_BaseGameMode : BaseGameMode
{
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//! Schedule printing of my header variable
override protected void OnGameStart()
{
super.OnGameStart();
if (!Replication.IsServer())
return;
GetGame().GetCallqueue().CallLater(MHT_PrintMyVariable, 1000, true);
}
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//! Broadcast and print my variable to all clients
protected void MHT_PrintMyVariable()
{
SCR_MissionHeader header = SCR_MissionHeader.Cast(GetGame().GetMissionHeader());
if (!header)
return;
Rpc(MHT_PrintInChatBroadcast, string.Format("m_fMHT_myFloatVariable = %1\nm_bMHT_myBooleanVariable = %2", header.m_fMHT_myFloatVariable, header.m_bMHT_myBooleanVariable));
}
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//! Print chat message for all clients
[RplRpc(RplChannel.Unreliable, RplRcver.Broadcast)]
protected void MHT_PrintInChatBroadcast(string message)
{
PlayerController ctrl = GetGame().GetPlayerController();
if (!ctrl)
return;
SCR_ChatComponent.Cast(ctrl.FindComponent(SCR_ChatComponent)).ShowMessage(message);
}
}- Start dedicated server with the following server config:
{
"bindAddress": "",
"bindPort": 2401,
"publicAddress": "",
"publicPort": 2401,
"game": {
"name": "Kex's Mission Header Test",
"passwordAdmin": "pw",
"scenarioId": "{83D06A42096F671C}Missions/MpTest/10_MpTest.conf",
"maxPlayers": 10,
"gameProperties": {
"missionHeader": {
"m_fMHT_myFloatVariable": 7,
"m_bMHT_myBooleanVariable": true
}
},
"mods": [
{
"modId": "5EAC510A8E6EC623",
"name": "Mission Header Test"
}
]
}
}- Check the values that are printed in chat. The expected behavior is that you should see m_fMHT_myFloatVariable = 7 and m_bMHT_myBooleanVariable = 1 printed in the chat, which are the values set in the server config. However, the parser fails for both and the default values are printed instead: m_fMHT_myFloatVariable = 11 and m_bMHT_myBooleanVariable = 0.
