Open game settings from the selected service. Available fields depend on the game, version, and distribution; there is no universal configuration for every server.
Edit parameters
- Open service settings and select the appropriate section.
- Change values using fields, switches, and lists.
- Read field guidance and save a draft.
Secret values are hidden. An empty secret field preserves its existing value; do not use an empty string to remove a password.
Apply a draft
Saving a draft does not modify the running server's files. Review the changes, then explicitly apply them. File settings on a running game require a restart; follow the interface warnings.
| Stage | What to check |
|---|---|
| Save | Changes appear in the draft |
| Apply | An operation exists without a validation error |
| Complete | The task finishes and the game passes its readiness check |
Wait for the current operation before submitting another. An accepted command does not mean the game is already using every setting.
Settings and the file editor
Configuration document editors offer interactive fields for supported game and mod settings. If a file has a draft, apply or discard it before editing the same file through service settings.
Reload the file or parameters after a version conflict. Blindly saving again may overwrite someone else's changes. Use configuration history to review changes.
Minecraft and Factorio
Minecraft
Settings depend on the version and distribution. Generation parameters and gamerules are different groups: changing rules does not recreate a game world. Check extension compatibility in the content section.
Factorio
Generation parameters may affect only new areas or a new world. Existing saves have a separate world-settings operation with a backup and confirmation of its consequences.
If changes do not take effect
Check whether the draft was applied, the operation finished, and a restart is required. Inspect game logs: invalid settings or incompatible mods may prevent startup.
