Many people might dislike my methods of studying but please don’t answer this by saying “you’re doing anki wrong”. Everyone studies differently and I’m hoping for help customizing my method.

I really like to study by topic (for example, study everything in purine metabolism in one day), and I’d really like to mix reviews in with this. However, to study say 140 new cards at once (what I wanted today in order to review purine/pyrimidine metabolism), I’d need a number of review cards that I just don’t have time for in one day.

Is there any way to have, say unlimited new cards and only 200 review cards a day?

When I do that, my new cards suddenly disappear ☹

You might be setting the limits for the wrong decks/presets.  
But double check to make sure you did exactly what was suggested.

I double checked, and it’s the anking step deck which is the only one I have downloaded right now so I don’t think it’s that.

Based on what you described – set a low daily max limit, and New cards go to 0 for the day – I  
still think you’re overlooking the setting at the bottom of the screenshot.
