Summary

0002133: `lobby` does not work in a config file

Description

For some reason, trying to set the lobby from a config file does not actually set the lobby - it is only possible to set when you're in the game itself. Doing +lobby at the command line doesn't work either. Neither does using `set`.

If you defines a custom_cvar, the game searches for the maplump (start) BEFORE applying the wad patches. So, in other words, your map is not found, and its value hasn't been set. Only possible solution/workaround, depending of your mood: transform lobby to CCMD (set_lobby), and keep lobby but as a single cvar. That way, only set_lobby "map00" will be needed to load it after a level ends.
