FreePBX Overwriting extensions_additional.conf settings

We have issues with delayed transfers on a few of our boxes so we took out the "t" option under the general settings in extensions_additional.conf

It seems that any time we make a change to an extension, trunk, etc. within FreePBX through the TB control panel it overwrite this file with the "tr" option again, causing the delay. Does anyone know how to keep this from happening?

Thanks,
Mike

You are correct, FreePBX

You are correct, FreePBX over writes _additional at will (well when it needs to make a change) you should do any customizations in _custom.conf files

So what line do I put in the

So what line do I put in the _custom.conf file? Same thing but w/o the "t" in the line?

(the one FreePBX overwrites contains)
[globals]
#include globals_custom.conf
CALLFILENAME = ""
DIAL_OPTIONS = tr
TRUNK_OPTIONS = ..........................................

Do I just put
-----------------------
[globals]
DIAL_OPTIONS = r
-----------------------

How does it know that my "t" should replace the "tr" in the other file?
