• Cinema Luminance Brightness is now used for MXI Emitter Intensity.
• Added support for the (R13) Cinema Camera's "Focus Object" link.
• Maxwell Fire exports are now performed using display LOD (in R12+).
• If no default mxm is found during export, one is written automatically.
• Optimized export of instances, when object motion blur is not enabled.
• Re-wote Render Region, to circumvent Cinema viewport z-clipping issues.

So you are talking about putting extra parameters in the UI, in Scene Object > Engine > Command Line, correct? Since you run a render farm, I assumed that you were referring to using the plugin to render C4D files from a command shell or batch file, and I could not reproduce the issue in that case. I see what you mean now, though -- I can check for this in the future and add a space if needed.
