[NEED HELP] map config file...

For the tutorial maps, I wanted to create config files (map cfg file). So I made a few, which stated that tut_00 and tut_01 have no starting weapons. And it worked. But for tut_02, tut_03 and tut_04, I wanted the player to have the laser as a starting weapon. So for those files, I set the laser variable to 1. No, it didn't work. So how is the map's cfg file executed and how can I fix this?
