nostr:npub1y4hhv5ttdsvzl7t0pr0rys7avx5zjv5pyjfgnldrthm2c3q6fnsq3ft26u do you have an existing baseq3/q3config_server.cfg? that has a bunch of "seta" commands so you could set sv_maxclients there. but that file might be specific to some or other source port, all of which have touched my ~/.q3a dir over the years.
