net_port
Local UDP port used for game communication. Fixed ports can conflict on shared routers; 0 lets the OS assign a random port, ideal for multiple QL instances or multi-PC households.
💡
Pro Tip
Set to 0 if you ever run two instances of QL or play on the same network as someone else — the OS picks a random port and you never get “port already in use” errors again.
