Apply a Startup change
- Stop the server between sessions. For a save-related change, make a backup first.
- Open Startup → Variables, enter a value accepted by the field and wait for it to save.
- Start the server and check the result in game. If startup stops, read the first Console error before making another change.
| Panel field | Purpose and accepted values |
|---|---|
| Automatic Updates | Controls the server’s update check when the server starts. Allow downloads to finish before retrying a start. On or off (the panel may display True/False or 1/0). |
| Server Name | The name players see when looking for the session. Use a distinctive name so it is easy to distinguish from other servers. Up to 255 characters. |
| Max Players | Controls how many players the game accepts at once. This is a game setting; the hosting plan’s player estimate is a sizing suggestion. |
Why a file edit can revert
Startup values are written to their mapped configuration entries when this server starts. Change a listed setting in Startup; use Files for settings that are not mapped to a panel field.
