What does "all the configs" mean in this context?

@bdach

1. login info
2. user settings
3. beatmap settings ("ignore beatmap skin", "background dim", etc)

and maybe something else that i haven't noticed

I don't think that "Try again" button can ever work in its current state without a game restart. There would need to be some series of callbacks to refresh the various config managers, available rulesets, realm database, etc.

Maybe we should force one then?

It's a bit unfortunate considering how close it is to working, but I'm fine with forcing one for now, as long as there's an attached comment explaining what is required to make it not require the restart.
