Good to know
- Server Name, Player Count, the RCON settings, Enable Queue, Server Password, Enable Dynamic weather, Humans and Allow Replay are written into the server's Game.ini file every time the server starts, so change them in Settings, then Game Settings, and restart. A value you type over them in Game.ini is replaced at the next start.
- The panel saves a value when you leave its field. If the value is not allowed, the panel tells you and keeps the old one.
- Passwords and tokens are not listed with a value. Each server starts with one set for you, or with none, as the row says. Set a password before you invite players if you want a private server.
- To open the page, follow How to set up The Isle server or How to change your server settings.
