The tooltip does not show min, max, and default values for a setting. The
text gives a hint only in some cases.

We should integrate the output that civserver gives here:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option        Wert    (min,max)      Beschreibung
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tinyisles     +=0     (0,1)          1x1 Inseln
razechance    +=20    (0,100)        Wahrscheinlichkeit der Gebäudezerstörung
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Maybe below the help text?
