Question about map downloading in config.lua

[Gunmetalx]

Sorry if this had been answered already, i searched around and didnt find anything. In an effort to learn I had a question about how this actually works in the config file.

-- Map
-- Note: Set mapName without .otbm at the end.
-- Note: If toggleDownloadMap is set to false, the mapDownloadUrl will not be used.
-- Note: If a map with the same name already exists in the world folder, the map will not be downloaded, even if toggleDownloadMap is set to true.
toggleDownloadMap = true
mapDownloadUrl = "https://github.com/opentibiabr/canary/releases/download/v3.2.0/otservbr.otbm"
mapName = "otservbr"
mapAuthor = "OpenTibiaBR"

I see it has a description but I just wanted clarification. Does this download the RL map from the URL and set the file name to otservbr. Afterwards, does it ignore downloading it again on server startup if the file name is never changed? If so, if I ever edited the map and changed the file name and then started up the server, would it overwrite my map file?

Bump. If anyone is able to give me some clarification on this. Im assuming I can set toggledownladmap to false after initial server start? Or is it beneficial to leave it as true?

By looking at config comments, yes

So just to be safe, do you recommend it set it to false now? My concern would be if I ever edited the map and somehow changed the file name that it would be overwritten on startup

It only checks by the file name if it exists and won't download if it does. So if you change the file name then it will redownload the map but won't remove your previous one with new name.
