You can also use these with the Director at the bottom where it says Custom Parameters. Simply type in the parameter(s) you want and restart the bot(s) you want to be affected by them. If they're a one-time deal, like to enable some global setting, then delete the parameters afterwards or they'll be applied to every bot you start afterwards too.
The following syntax is recognized:
-parameter value -parameter=value -parameter:value /parameter:value /parameter=value /parameter value
To set checkbox for one of the above-mentioned parameters, the value must be one of these (any other vlaue will uncheck it):
1 yes on true
Please note that until we get the source code upgraded for Zinc 4.0 compatibility, command line parameters will not work with Linux binary builds. This is a limitation in the program we're using now to compile them. Sorry, we hope to rectify this very soon!
