Plains of Pain Server Admin Guide

Tilgjengelig på: ESPAÑOL

This guide covers admin management, difficulty settings, and server maintenance for your Plains of Pain dedicated server. For initial setup, see Plains of Pain Server Setup Guide.

1. Admin Access

Plains of Pain admin controls are managed through in-game mechanics and server configuration. The server host has admin privileges by default when connecting.

2. Difficulty Settings

Difficulty is set via the DIFFICULTY startup variable and affects enemy strength, resource scarcity, and survival mechanics:

Value Difficulty Description
0TouristRelaxed experience with minimal threats.
1RookiesStandard difficulty for new players.
2True WastelanderBalanced challenge for experienced players.
3VeteranTough survival with stronger enemies.
4OverlordMaximum difficulty -- brutal and unforgiving.
Note: Changing difficulty requires setting a new WORLD_ID to generate a fresh world, or the change may not take full effect on an existing world.

3. World Management

Multiple Worlds

You can maintain multiple worlds by using different WORLD_ID values. Each world ID has its own save data. Switch between worlds by changing the WORLD_ID startup variable and restarting.

World Reset

To wipe a world and start fresh:

  1. Stop the server.
  2. Delete the world save data for the corresponding WORLD_ID via SFTP.
  3. Optionally change the SEED for a new map layout.
  4. Start the server -- a new world will generate.

4. Server Configuration

The configs/server.json file contains all server settings. Edit via SFTP for values not exposed as startup variables.

Tip: The panel overwrites key settings in server.json on each start. For settings managed by startup variables, always use the GPanel Startup tab instead of editing the file directly.

5. Player Management

  • Use the in-game player list to manage connected players.
  • Set a SERVER_PASSWORD to restrict access to trusted players only.
  • Adjust MAX_PLAYERS based on your server's resources and the world size.

6. Troubleshooting

  • Server not starting: Check the GPanel console for errors. Ensure the server has finished updating if AUTO_UPDATE is enabled.
  • World not generating: Verify the WORLD_SIZE is a valid value (11, 21, 31, 41, or 51).
  • Players cannot find server: The server must show Set Game State: RUNNING in the console before it appears in the browser. Allow a few minutes for registration.
  • Performance issues: Reduce WORLD_SIZE or MAX_PLAYERS if the server is lagging. Larger worlds require more resources.
