[Bug] ConfigVar replication serialization failed

[n0minal]

Summary

I'm getting several ConfigVar replication serialization failed for <state variable> for variables being set with setr. Why is this happening? How do I fix the replication serialization for these convars?

EDIT: found the issue, see my comment below.

I found the issue with the help of a discord user. It seems like whenever a convar is set to an empty string, it fails the serialization for all the other convars.

In the case of qbox, the qbx_motd convar has a its default value set to an empty string "" in the server.cfg, that causes the serialization issue. After commenting out the empty string convar setr qbx_motd: "" I no longer have this issue.

I believe empty string convars could either be just ignored or serialized as an empty/nil value, would be better than throwing that many errors on all convars just because of one malformed value.

I can confirm this is now fixed in Patch 4. Feel free to close this issue.
