Hmm, I'm using those names, and I'm still getting lots of island spawns for the AoD. Why I thought I may have been missing something. I would also replace the "HumanNPC.... line that has Cave in it to Inland also I assume. (which is what I did) Not sure what I really need to do to make the adjustments actually happen. Thanks

Andargor, You used the entry in game.ini just like above? I tried the 'inland' option where one of our Powerstones are and I still have a fair amount of them spawning as I run around. I expected to see very little to none. (although it seemed a little less, it was hard to tell) Thanks

minor edits and bump

bumping this as we have new fresh map that just launched

So will the empire system still be available in the game for Unofficial servers?

Okay, cool. Too bad it was deleted as there was a lot of good info on there.

I noticed today that the Atlas Support Discord that was used to share info about setting up dedicated servers, sharing info, posted guides, and map editor discussions is now gone. Did the owner of that discord delete it? If so, any reason? That had the most info on Atlas server admin that I have found anywhere. thanks

Sparc, that's good to know about the restarts. Restarting unresponsive/crashed grids is such a critical thing that I had assumed that the capability was there. Do you have an idea on when you might start supporting that? Once the new update comes out I suspect the server pop to go up quite a bit more, and keeping things up will provide a much better experience. thanks

Think I'm missing something. Is there an option to automatically restart crashed/unresponsive grids? Had one crash and it is not restarting.

Nice update. I like the layout for the local/remote servers. I was going to mention that in the previous version it was not reporting the number of players on for me, but now after the update it seems to be working correctly. See that SyncServer option is now 'available', but it says feature is incomplete. Does it actually work, or just 'kinda' work? Great job on this, glad to see that you are continuing to work on it.

So would you consider supporting current game/gus file params as an 'import' nto the config manager? I have a lot customized in those files, to include the default gus/game files. (it's just easier to update most things in one place) Good copies of those config files could be pulled from a 'backup' directory on server start. Have a 4x4 now, but I'm currently expanding to 5x5. Runs on one server, but in two different VMs. (redis/territory map app/etc. runs in a third VM) It's a pretty good size server. Would the server control app be able to manage that, given how the functions are distributed? Was looking at the app control panel and wondering how it 'communicates' to the other servers to be able to control them. (like when grids are spread across different servers/VMs) It seems like the tool would need to run on each VM there are grids running, so not sure how you set it up to manage grids running on different servers.

Aside from GUS and game ini mentioned above, what about replacing defaultgame.ini and defaultgus files when they get replaced in some updates? I think I will switch to using this manager, versus what I'm using now. Looks nice! Adding update, looks like I have to wait for next update also, have too many grids.

it would be nice to get some info on what the actual temperature setting mean in the json, so we can adjust them to what we want them to be. Just being able to turn off extreme cold doesn't address the issue of the weather still fluctuating a lot.

bump up

Bump as I rewrote the original post.

bump and noting that I'm in the process of adding three more grids to make this a 3x3.

I seem to have resolved this, but not sure what actually did it. I validated/updated server files again and that updated my default config files it seems, so I set those back, but I think there was an invalid value for OceanDepthFadeExponent in the json for that region. Not sure why I saw it now after this update, but moved it to a value a saw in other map templates and the sun/ocean looks fine now.

After the 10.x upgrade, the main spawn grid looks like this for the people in it. It seems to be related to lighting, and turning toward the sun makes it worse. The other grids are fine though, so I don't think it is the server having missing/corrupted files. Question is, why would the users in this particular grid start seeing this, and no one else? (in other grids) Video of bad lighting when turning toward sun

HoneyBadgers Atlas Server We are a small casual group of gamers that play various games and host servers, such as Ark, and now mostly play Atlas. If anyone is looking to join the server with us, we just ask that you don’t just focus on griefing others and being an ass. We are now running a 6x6 (36 grid) map. This is the new map as of the 1.5 mega update. Server Setup/info Server is setup in a 6x6 grid cluster. (36 grids if you can't math) Using Original Empires claim system so people can explore and setup remote outposts. There are many additional islands placed in the grids. Treasure Maps/Powerstones/Trade ships/Underwater Trenches/etc. are all setup Each grid is a different climate Each server/grid is currently setup to support 50 users. All grids/locations are claimable. Freeport spawn grids are PVE - there are 3. Cross server/grid chat implemented. (with integration to a discord channel) Server Rates Experience 6x Harvesting 9x Taming 8x Baby mature to 12x Additional skill points awarded per level and levels beyond 100 Ship max XP is higher so they can level up more than default. (should be to level 72 if value is accurate) Slight increases to weight, fortitude, etc. Unlimited respecs Treasure gold is 2x Structure placement collisions is true. Ship of the Damned and wild creatures spawn a little less than normal. Default was constant animal fighting. (is reduced the Alphas also) Ship of the Damned has different difficulty levels per grid. (marked on in-game map) More time between rain/tornado storms. Start with default metal tools and horse/saddle In-game shop for buying items with points - Get points for the time you are logged in. Mods: Spuk Advanced Structures Custom Items Stacks Peachy Ship decor Ecos RP decor Search for the server in the unofficial listing by typing “HoneyBadger”. Then add it to favorites. Join the discord for more info. https://discord.gg/x7mjV5W Keep in mind that the game gets many updates/patches, and we do our best to keep it up to date when they do push out new versions. (as they have been happening at random times) they have been happening at random times. With the new update, we'll probably be making small adjustments to values, as some things have changed a little.

Has anyone actually tried these commands, or found others to deal with claim flags that can't be contested/removed?

Tried this my server and these options don't seem to work. Hopefully someone comes up with a solution for this, some places we just can't go because there are so many Alphas.

have any luck with this? would this work in default game.ini, or would need to be in each grid server game.ini?
