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 |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| World ID | Selected World ID, (will be created for any new number). |
| Difficulty | The installed panel accepts 1 (Rookies), 2 (True Wastelander), 3 (Veteran) or 4 (Overlord). Its validation excludes 0, even though the upstream description mentions Tourist. |
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.
