SCFA.exe load options for understand map coorinate drop-off ACU and army who ally who enemy and start simInit.BeginSession battle began.
SCFA.exe load options too late for mods who change blueprints.
Options only for change algorithms during buttle. No any Options for balance because while loading blueprints no Options in memory.

I'm afraid that this is not quite possible at the moment. There is a hacky approach to read the preference file (where the information is stored), but there's no guarantee that the information in the preference file is synced properly. Meaning if we create more features that rely on it to be in sync then that's a huge risk to random, hard to debug desyncs.
