I've been having an issue with NEI always spawning survival players with Recipe mode only and disabling cheats.

While that can be fixed in NEI's options while in game or by starting a world in Creative, its inconvenient and a hassle especially when I'm spawning many worlds while testing new mods.

I usually don't touch the Configuration file for NEI, as everywhere I go people mention to modify 2 lines to enable the ability to cheat, but it would seem that the default NEI config these days is suppose to be in cheat mode but its not doing that for me if I spawn a world in Survival Mode (and all new players in Survival mode while on a server with my mod pack are stuck in Recipe mode)

Heres a snippet of my NEI/Client.cfg and you can see it shows what most people have suggested. Change Cheatmode from =0 to =2 and change Lockmode from =0 to =-1

inventory
{
	cheatmode=2
	gamemodes=creative, creative+, adventure
	hidden=false
	itemIDs=1
	itemsort=nei.itemsort.minecraft,nei.itemsort.mod,nei.itemsort.id,nei.itemsort.default,nei.itemsort.damage,nei.itemsort.name
	layoutstyle=0
	#For those who can't help themselves.
	#Set this to a mode and you will be unable to change it ingame
	lockmode=-1
	profileRecipes=false
	searchmode=1
	utilities=delete, magnet
	widgetsenabled=true
}

I have no idea why NEI keeps doing this to me and I've tried other settings in the past but nothing seems to change it.

It would be nice to be able to spawn into a Survival world with cheats enabled again without having to manually change that in the NEI options every time I make a new world (or set up a new server)
