[Using Valheim+ without control pannel for better control.]

The following from Ryan Pennington:

You can update on your end without needing us to intervene each time. Only in the case that you use our Modify Valheim+ Config tool would you need to see if any new settings were changed. It takes us a few days to add those. If you simply cannot wait then you are free to ignore that tool and make the changes to your file manually via FTP. Again, you can auto pull the latest Valheim+ update as it's available on Github without waiting for us.

 

I do not know exactly how to but it is possible. However when the official update comes out it may revert your configs to default and possibly lose items though so be aware of that. Check out some of the other threads in the modding forum where I found this information.

[Help Updating Server Config]

Well they never even updated to 0.9.4 so IDK how fast 0.9.5 turnaround is expected to be, but that is kinda annoying. I wouldn't mind if I just had to reupload my saved .cfg to the server and restart it to fix the SS update, but having to go through the GUI to reset everything manually that way is a minor pain point for sure. And imagine someone logging in while inventory spaces aren't configured properly. Disastrous. 

I learned this the hard way by going to my friends single player server without the extra inventory spaces and lost all my food. Not the end of the world though. But I agree, if we never got the update for .9.4 then who knows how long for .9.5. Nothing to worry about now but I wonder what will happen when Hearth & Home comes out.

I will re post a post I made in a separate post  (post post post, lul) that will answer the question.

Yes. You can update the server files by downloading WinSCP and logging into the server using the credentials on the Survival Servers Control Panel, drag and drop the server side download file 0.9.5 from Valheim plus.

This is however becomes annoying because once Survival Servers finally (I say finally because updating Valheim plus is extremely quick and SS for whatever reason takes a day or two and its annoying) updates to 0.9.5 your config file will be wiped and you have to reedit the SS config via the control panel. You can't even simply copy and paste your config edits back into the Server files after SS updates because for what ever reason changes you make manually to the Config file do not carry over to the SS control panel config...

So yeah from previous annoyances idk if the update is worth doing manually or just waiting for SS to update it. Contemplating it myself for my Dedicated server atm.

This is my question as well; Wait for SS or manually do it and face the consequences when they occur. I'm worried that eventually when the update comes through from SS I will be faced will too many issues and lose motivation in trying to fix it. So I think I will wait for now.
