 Add or overwrite Observium settings in the `observium/.env` file using the `OBSERVIUM__` prefix. Follow these mapping instructions:
 
 - Using a single underscore (`_`) will include an underscore in the key (e.g., `OBSERVIUM__int_core=0`).
-- Using a double underscore (`__`) will generate an associative array with the given key.
+- Using a double underscore (`__`) will add the value to an associative array with the given key.
 - Dashes cannot be used in environment variables. To represent a dash in the key, escape it using triple underscores (`___`).
+- Using a number at the end of the key indicates that the value will be added to an indexed/sequential array.
