-Most people don't know the real use of the import folder. After you do, you will wonder what you ever did without it.

-The main thing it does, is provide a way for you to change your config settings without having to update the files everytime you update your server. You store your changes, and the rest are updated with eA (usually though SVN).

How does this work?
-Well, you place only the settings you have changed in the import files. I'll use battle_athena.conf and battle_conf.txt for my example. Everytime you update you conf folder, using the normal method, you have to go and edit the configs again. So, you have to redo your rates, redo your ip addresses, you have to redo it all. WEll, not witht he import system.

-So, now this new setting take place over the setting in battle_athena.conf. You just keep this file everytime you update, and your setting will always be there. Neat, isn't it?

-So, yeah, that's what the import folder is for. I hope to see a lot more people use it, to make my life as a managed server runer better.
