Soldat server settings: Startup and configuration

Use Server Password, Server Name and Max Players in Startup to configure Soldat.

Apply a Startup change

  1. Stop the server between sessions. For a save-related change, make a backup first.
  2. Open Startup → Variables, enter a value accepted by the field and wait for it to save.
  3. Start the server and check the result in game. If startup stops, read the first Console error before making another change.
Open Startup → Variables for the controls exposed by this server. This demonstration hides private values; file edits are made through Files.

Panel fieldPurpose and accepted values
Server PasswordThe password for players joining the game. Do not reuse your panel account password. Up to 20 characters.
Server NameThe name players see when looking for the session. Use a distinctive name so it is easy to distinguish from other servers. Up to 100 characters.
Max PlayersControls how many players the game accepts at once. This is a game setting; the hosting plan’s player estimate is a sizing suggestion. Allowed range: 1–20.

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.
