How to change your Enshrouded server name, password and slots

EnshroudedUpdated Sep 24, 20263 min read

Enshrouded uses a single JSON config file, enshrouded_server.json, in the root of your server.


1. Open the file

  1. Stop the server in the Game Panel and wait for it to report offline.
  2. Open the Files tab and click enshrouded_server.json.

2. The settings you will change

KeyWhat it does
nameThe server name.
slotCountPlayer slots.
saveDirectoryThe folder holding the world. A new value starts a new world.
logDirectoryWhere the logs are written.
gamePort and queryPortAlready set to your allocation. Do not change them.
ipThe bind address. Leave it as it is.
userGroupsThe list of roles, each with its own password and permissions.

3. Passwords are per group

Inside userGroups you will find entries for admin, friend and guest. Each has:

  • A password, which is what a player types to join as that role.
  • Permission flags such as whether that role can kick and ban or edit the base.
  • A reserved slot count, so admins can always get in on a full server.

Give out the friend password. Keep the admin one to yourself.


4. Save and restart

  1. Save the file. It must stay valid JSON. A trailing comma or a missing quotation mark stops the server loading it.
  2. Start the server and read the console for the name it registered.

5. Starting a new world

Change saveDirectory to a folder name that does not exist yet. The server creates a fresh world and leaves the old save on disk, so switching back is just a matter of putting the old value back. Download a copy from the Files tab before you experiment.

If a change does not apply, confirm the server was stopped when you saved and that the JSON is still valid.
