Additional Notes

Internally, there is no concept of boolean to a server setting, so results are based on whether the variable is set to a 1 or 0, which mimics a boolean value.

This function makes use of server_settings.Int and compares its result to zero to see if the setting is true or not. It does this by setting default to 1 if default is given a true value, 0 otherwise. Thus, default could be given any sort of value, so long as it is true. Be aware 0 and "0" are true in Lua. Only false and nil have falseness.
