Configurations are mostly server side. Until Torchmaster 1.7, torches werent really affected by configuration mismatches between client and server since the client doesnt use the config. Version 1.7 introduces the volume rendering feature which in turn uses the config for the first time on the client side as well.

To represent the server side configuration more accurate on the client (i.e. for different range settings), the configuration should be synced from the server to the client.
