[doesn't work anymore] How to disable custom characters
Using modinfo.lua
Doen't work anymore.
Now you can disable custom charaters only on dedicated server (and may be on a server with caves, i'm not sure).

How to see custom character's prefab name
  1. Find modmain.lua of character's mod in
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\
    \common\Don't Starve Together\mods\workshop-XXXXXXXXX
  2. At end of the file find word "AddModCharacter", e.g.:
    AddModCharacter("wren","FEMALE")
    In this example wren is character's prefab name.

Then add the prefab name into the config
In your modoverrides.lua add new option:
user_character = "wren",
If you have many custom characters and want to disable more than one, use comma:
user_character = "asuna,wren",

So this shows how to see a character, but how do you disable them?
