[Server Restart Notification... where ???]

unders Server Settings "AutoSavePeriodMinutes=15.000000"

Thats just for the Auto save not restart.

[ARK: Control Panel Feature Requests]

The best thing you could add would be a feature to allow other admins to restart and update server without giving them the master username and password. 

[How can i give another Admin control over restarting or updating server without giving out main username and password]

Yeah basically this is a game changer for me. If they cannot come up with a solution I will be going to another company that already has this in place as I have a few admins that need to be able to control the server without having my master username and password. 

 

I mean come on guys common sense tells you to do this.

[How can i give another Admin control over restarting or updating server without giving out main username and password]

It says it all. As there are other sites where through the control panel you're allowed to give access to certain features on the server this hosting company has none that i can see.

 

I would LOVE to be able to give my admins access to restarting or updating the server when i am gone WITHOUT giving out my main username and password to the control panel.

 

Is this going to be something that you will be coming out with or is it already a feature that i have no idea about?

[How do i enable crosshair and thirdperson?]

Simple either add it to your custom launch parameters or add it to your Gameusersettings.ini

 

AllowThirdPersonPlayer=True

 

ServerCrosshair=True

 

Description is here at bottom of page.(not typing it out again)

[need help setting up custom server codes in SS control panel]

If you want it to take 2x as long for food to run out then put in this value PlayerCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier=.500000 that will cut the time down in half. Then for water just do PlayerCharacterWaterDrainMultiplier=.250000 as that will bring it down to 1/4 speed.

 

As far as resources re spawning near your building its hard coded into the game that when you lay down a foundation and harvest resources around it they will not respawn back over a certain radius of that foundation.

 

If you were to make it so it took 10x longer for your resources to come back after normal harvesting you would be waiting over 4 hrs for a tree to grow back or longer. Up to you what you want. ResourcesRespawnPeriodMultiplier=.050000 is what i have and it seems to be fine.

 

Everything up to the last line needs a ? for it to work.

 

I just copied over the values from the /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/CleanSourceConfigs/GameUserSettings.ini that i wanted to change and added them to /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/GameUserSettings.ini. Just go to the bottom of the page and add [serverSettings] then your values you want to change.

 

Example:

 

[serverSettings]

NightTimeSpeedScale=5.000000

DayCycleSpeedScale=.500000

DinoDamageMultiplier=1.500000

ClampResourceHarvestDamage=true

PlayerCharacterWaterDrainMultiplier=.750000

PlayerCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier=.750000

PlayerCharacterStaminaDrainMultiplier=.750000

DinoCharacterStaminaDrainMultiplier=.750000

PlayerCharacterHealthRecoveryMultiplier=4.000000

ResourcesRespawnPeriodMultiplier=.050000

XPMultiplier=2.750000

NoTributeDownloads=true

AllowThirdPersonPlayer=True

 

You have to make sure you have 6 digits after the . or it will not work properly.

 

Also another thing that's important is i saved  those files on my Hard drive so i could right click on the file and select properties to change it to read only after i edited it. That way it cannot be wrote over in game when i copy it back over the ftp.

 

Good luck!

Best tool ever!!

[Changing difficulty (Server commands missing?)]

you need to look in the /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/CleanSourceConfigs/gameusersettings.ini file and copy over what you want to the /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/gameusersettings.ini file. Just remember to have [serverSettings] above whatever you add then restart your server and it will work fine.

[GameUserSettings.ini changes]

Same thing has happened to me but when i looked into it i noticed the files are now in /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/CleanSourceConfigs. Upon changing these settings though they all revert back to their original settings.

 

Hopefully this can be rectified soon as i will not be able to unlock my server until i can change these settings.

 

EDIT: Found the Fix to this problem.

 

Open your GameUserSettings.ini in /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer and scroll to the very bottom and hit enter 2x then paste [serverSettings] then below it copy over the contents of /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/CleanSourceConfigs/GameUserSettings.ini that you want in your game and it works fine.

 

Example:

 

[serverSettings]

NoTributeDownloads=True

AllowThirdPersonPlayer=False

ServerPassword=******

ServerAdminPassword=*********

KickIdlePlayersPeriod=2400.000000

AutoSavePeriodMinutes=15.000000

DifficultyOffset=1.000000

StructureDamageMultiplier=.025000

StructureResistanceMultiplier=.025000

TamingSpeedMultiplier=3.000000

HarvestAmountMultiplier=2.000000

ResourcesRespawnPeriodMultiplier=3.000000

DinoCountMultiplier=2.000000
