### What is JSON/How do I change my configuration?
JSON is a text format that allows structured data storage in a plain-text format.
IW4MAdmin uses this format to store configuration data.
Because the format is very specific, it is recommended to run any configuration changes through a [JSON validator/formatter](https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/) before starting IW4MAdmin.
If you receive a message like below when starting IW4MAdmin, it is likely you made a change that resulted in an invalid JSON format

This error message displays the file as well as the line number the format error occurred on.
**This will need to be addressed before IW4MAdmin can start.**

### I'm running an IW4x server and I see duplicated messages from IW4MAdmin
This is an IW4x bug that causes out of band packets to be dropped or processed multiple times.
There is an open PR to resolve this https://github.com/XLabsProject/iw4x-client/pull/29, but until that is merged there is no work around short of compiling IW4x yourself.
