This command used to spam .rpt when queried mod didn't exist, making it little awkward to use for testing if mod is active. For example: _superDuperModEnabled = modParams ["super_duper", ["active"]] param [0, false]; Since v1.69 the command would fail silently if mod didn't exist, but would still log .rpt error if the mod name passed to the command was empty or there was an error processing one of the passed options.

For each value, it will first read the value from the mod.cpp file, if the value is not in it (or the files does not exist), it will try to read it from the CfgMods entry as long as it has the EXACT same name. If you try to get "name" and the command cannot find it in either of those locations, it will return the same value as the modClass input.
In practice, this means that content from user mods will always be read from mod.cpp and never from the CfgMods.
