Avorion can't set game config settings as server.ini gets created fresh each restart

Each time i restart the server, the server.ini file is recreated and losses any edits I had made. I have made a new start parameters override in avserver.cfg but this is limited to what can be passed.

For example, I cannot set collisiondamage = 0 as when i edit in server.ini and then restart the server, the value is overridden back to the default of 1. Same with server password and server name etc.

I am probably doing something wrong, but I cant currently see how to set and ensure they are kept, any server settings you can't pass through on the start parameters.

avserver.cfg

ip=xx
startparameters="--galaxy-name ${selfname} --ip ${ip} --datapath ${avdatapath} --seed xx --admin xx --listed false --max-players 5 --same-start-sector true"

here is my start output

Start by reproducing the restart with the shown avserver.cfg startparameters and inspect /home/avserver/serverfiles/galaxy/avserver/server.ini before and after restarting. Determine whether LinuxGSM or Avorion recreates the file and how settings such as collisiondamage, password, and server name are expected to be configured; done means a confirmed cause and a documented configuration path or focused fix.
