This guide covers the most common configuration tasks for a Conan Exiles Enhanced dedicated server hosted at Survival Servers — server name and password, gameplay multipliers, PvP rules, raid hours, and where each setting actually lives on disk.
Most settings are exposed as form fields in the control panel and write to the standard Conan config files for you. Use this page as a reference for where to find each common setting.


== Where settings live ==
== Modify Server Config ==


Conan Exiles Enhanced reads three configuration files for most server-side options:
The '''Modify Server Config''' tool is where you set most gameplay options. Open your Conan Exiles Enhanced server in the control panel, then click '''Modify Server Config''' to open it.


* <code>ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\ServerSettings.ini</code> — server name, password, max players, base gameplay tuning
[[File:Conan_Enhanced_Server_Config.png|600px|Modify Server Config tool with the General section open]]
* <code>ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\Game.ini</code> — extended gameplay rules and PvP rules
* <code>ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\Engine.ini</code> — networking and engine-level toggles


The Survival Servers control panel exposes the most-used options as form fields and writes them to these files for you. You can also open each file directly through the panel's Advanced Config pills (ServerSettings.ini, Engine.ini, Game.ini) if you want to edit a setting that is not yet in the form.
The sidebar groups settings into '''General''', '''PvP''', '''Death & Loot''', '''Multipliers''', and '''Time & Day Cycle'''. Each setting writes to the matching Funcom config key for you.


== Server name, password, and slots ==
== Admin password ==


# Open your Conan Exiles Enhanced server in the control panel.
# Click '''Modify Server Config'''.
# Set '''Server name''', '''Server password''' (leave empty for an open server), and '''Max slots''' in the form.
# In the '''General''' section, set the '''Admin Password''' field.
# Click '''Save and restart''' to apply.
# Pick '''Apply & Restart''' and click '''Save'''.


The server password lets only players who know it connect. The admin password (next section) is separate — it is what gives logged-in players admin abilities once they are on the server.
For logging in as admin in-game, see [[Adding Admins to a Conan Exiles Enhanced Server]].
 
== Setting an admin password ==
 
The admin password lets in-game players elevate to admin so they can spawn items, teleport, or run admin commands. To set it:
 
# Open '''Server Config''' in the panel.
# Set '''Admin password''' to a strong password.
# Save and restart.
# In-game, open Settings and look for the admin password field; entering the password elevates that character.
 
For a step-by-step on running admin commands once elevated, see [[Adding Admins to a Conan Exiles Enhanced Server]].


== Gameplay multipliers ==
== Gameplay multipliers ==


The most-tweaked gameplay settings:
The most-tweaked options live in the '''Multipliers''' section of '''Modify Server Config''':
 
* '''XP rate''' — how fast players level
* '''Harvest amount''' — resource yield from gathering
* '''Item spoil rate''' — how fast food, corpses, and consumables decay
* '''Crafting time''' — how long crafting actions take
* '''Stamina cost''' — combat and movement stamina drain
* '''Avatar lifetime''' — how long avatars (the giant gods) stay summoned
* '''Day/night cycle speed'''
 
All of these are exposed as panel fields. The defaults match Funcom's official server defaults; raise above 1.0 for "easier" servers, lower for harder.
 
== PvP, PvE, and PvE-Conflict modes ==
 
Three server modes:
 
* '''PvP''' — players can damage each other and structures at any time
* '''PvE''' — players cannot damage each other or each other's structures
* '''PvE-Conflict''' — players can damage each other, but not each other's structures, except during raid hours
 
Mode is set in the panel's Server Config form and writes to the appropriate flags in <code>ServerSettings.ini</code>.
 
== Raid hours (PvP and PvE-Conflict only) ==
 
Raid hours define a window during which structure damage is allowed. Outside that window, building structures are invulnerable. Settings:
 
* '''Raid hours start''' — UTC hour the raid window opens (0–23)
* '''Raid hours end''' — UTC hour the raid window closes (0–23)
* '''Raid hours weekday/weekend split''' — Conan Exiles supports a different window for weekdays vs weekends
 
Set these in the Server Config form and restart to apply.
 
== Whitelist and banlist ==
 
Whitelist mode lets only listed players connect. Useful for private clan servers or paid memberships.
 
* Toggle '''Whitelist enabled''' in the panel.
* Add Steam ID or Funcom ID entries to <code>ConanSandbox\Saved\Whitelist.txt</code> through the file manager.
* Save and restart for the whitelist to apply.


Bans are managed in-game by an admin, or by editing <code>ConanSandbox\Saved\BanList.txt</code> directly.
* '''Player XP Rate Multiplier'''
* '''Harvest Amount Multiplier'''
* '''Item Spoil Rate Scale'''
* '''Crafting Cost Multiplier'''
* '''Player Stamina Cost Multiplier'''
* '''Day Cycle Speed Scale'''


== Saving config changes ==
Default values match Funcom's defaults. Raise above 1.0 for an easier server, lower for harder.


Conan Exiles applies most configuration changes only on a server restart. After saving in the panel, the panel will prompt you to choose:
== PvP ==


# '''Save and restart server''' — saves and bounces the server. Recommended for changes that need to take effect right now.
The '''PvP''' section toggles whether players can damage each other and exposes the time-window controls:
# '''Save without restart''' — writes the new values to disk; they apply at the next natural restart.
# '''Save form values only''' — writes the panel form's values without rewriting the .ini files. Used to stage config changes without hitting the server yet.


If a setting does not appear to take effect, restart the server and verify the corresponding line in <code>ServerSettings.ini</code> through the file manager.
* '''PvP Enabled''' — turn player-vs-player damage on or off.
* '''Can Damage Player Owned Structures''' — toggle whether built structures can take damage at all.
* '''Restrict PvP Time''' — only allow PvP combat inside a daily window. Pair with the '''PvP Time Weekday Start / End''' and '''PvP Time Weekend Start / End''' fields (UTC, 0–23).
* '''Restrict PvP Building Damage Time''' — only allow structures to be damaged inside a daily window. Pair with the '''PvP Building Damage Time Weekday Start / End''' and '''PvP Building Damage Time Weekend Start / End''' fields. This is the field set most servers think of as "raid hours".


== Working with the merged Enhanced world ==
For a pure PvE server, leave '''PvP Enabled''' off. For a PvE-Conflict-style ruleset, leave '''PvP Enabled''' on and use '''Restrict PvP Building Damage Time''' to limit structure damage to a window.


Conan Exiles Enhanced uses a single merged world map. Isle of Siptah is no longer a separate dedicated-server map selection. The map dropdown in the Conan Exiles Enhanced panel offers '''Enhanced World (Merged Map)''' as the default and only map; older Siptah-specific options are not available.
== Map ==

* '''Admin password not working in-game.''' Confirm the admin password is set in the panel, the change was saved, and the server has been restarted since.
* '''Server starts but no settings applied.''' Make sure you used '''Save and restart''', not '''Save form values only'''.

Most settings are exposed as form fields in the control panel and write to the standard Conan config files for you. Use this page as a reference for where to find each common setting.

Modify Server Config

The Modify Server Config tool is where you set most gameplay options. Open your Conan Exiles Enhanced server in the control panel, then click Modify Server Config to open it.

Modify Server Config tool with the General section open

The sidebar groups settings into General, PvP, Death & Loot, Multipliers, and Time & Day Cycle. Each setting writes to the matching Funcom config key for you.

Admin password

  1. Click Modify Server Config.
  2. In the General section, set the Admin Password field.
  3. Pick Apply & Restart and click Save.

For logging in as admin in-game, see Adding Admins to a Conan Exiles Enhanced Server.

Gameplay multipliers

The most-tweaked options live in the Multipliers section of Modify Server Config:

  • Player XP Rate Multiplier
  • Harvest Amount Multiplier
  • Item Spoil Rate Scale
  • Crafting Cost Multiplier
  • Player Stamina Cost Multiplier
  • Day Cycle Speed Scale

Default values match Funcom's defaults. Raise above 1.0 for an easier server, lower for harder.

PvP

The PvP section toggles whether players can damage each other and exposes the time-window controls:

  • PvP Enabled — turn player-vs-player damage on or off.
  • Can Damage Player Owned Structures — toggle whether built structures can take damage at all.
  • Restrict PvP Time — only allow PvP combat inside a daily window. Pair with the PvP Time Weekday Start / End and PvP Time Weekend Start / End fields (UTC, 0–23).
  • Restrict PvP Building Damage Time — only allow structures to be damaged inside a daily window. Pair with the PvP Building Damage Time Weekday Start / End and PvP Building Damage Time Weekend Start / End fields. This is the field set most servers think of as "raid hours".

For a pure PvE server, leave PvP Enabled off. For a PvE-Conflict-style ruleset, leave PvP Enabled on and use Restrict PvP Building Damage Time to limit structure damage to a window.

Map

Conan Exiles Enhanced uses a single merged world based on the Exiled Lands. Isle of Siptah is no longer a separate dedicated-server map.

Saving changes

The Modify Server Config tool offers two save modes via the radio next to the Save button:

  • Apply & Restart — writes the values and restarts the server so they take effect.
  • Apply — writes the values without restarting. Most settings only take effect on the next restart.

Click Save to commit. Click Reset to discard changes you haven't saved yet.

Server name, password, max slots

Server name, the join password (leave blank for an open server), and slot count are set on the main server panel page, not inside the Modify Server Config tool.
