import { Step, Steps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/steps';

In `config.json`:

```json
"MaxPlayers": 100
```

Range: 1–1000. Default: 100.

Performance Note [#performance-note]

Higher player counts require more RAM. The biggest RAM driver is `MaxViewRadius` — reduce from 32 to **12** for better performance with many players.
