INI files are INItialization files for applications. They contain various settings that will be read by the application when it first starts up. These settings are represented by "keys" and "values" and are organized into "sections" like so:

[Section1]
Key1=Value1
Key2=Value2

[Section2]
Key1=Value1

Of course, all of the names above can be replaced with more descriptive ones, so the text is more human-readable.

With subgame, the main INI file you'll be dealing with is server.ini. However, each arena has a config file (CFG) that will be read when its arena is created that has the same INI-file format.

With ASSS all settings are stored in configuration files (.conf) that (mostly) have the same format as the INI files. The primary one is global.conf, which contains all of the important settings.
