Config Hierarchy Documentation Looks Wrong?

anonymous_user_3752b86c · March 18, 2019, 12:40pm

In the documentation for config files it seems to imply that when loading config files, the order in which they’re loaded is:

engine/config/base
engine/config/baseEngine
engine/config/platform/platformEngine
project/config/defaultEngine
project/config/platform/platformEngine

But I’m stepping through this in VS and what I’m getting is:

engine/config/base
engine/config/baseEngine
project/config/defaultEngine
engine/config/platform/platformEngine
project/config/platform/platformEngine
