my game.ini has no settings in it

Dear forum members,
for some time now we have been creating and maintaining new ways to help game server admins with questions and problems as quickly as possible, e.g. our Guides section and the Nitrado Community Discord.

Therefore, we inform you that the Nitrado Forum will be closed on March 31, 2023. We are consolidating our community support to our Discord channel, which is faster and more efficient. We have also seen incredible growth in our community due to the hard work of our moderators and our bots. We are confident that this move will ensure that we provide the best support possible for our users.

Thank you to all members for your continued use of the forum!

Assistance with all questions concerning your Nitrado service can now be found in these spots:

    You have to make a decision to use 'expert mode' or use the WebUI of the server to set your settings. You cant do both. The ini is blank because you are not using expert settings yet. Most use the Webui for the settings, save. Then go to engine settings on the left which access your game.ini. Save.

    Then do a restart. Once restarted do a 'save configuration profile' on the left. This will save your gus.ini and game.ini settings.

    im in expert settings tho i choose to go straight into it cause i know how to do some of the settings but theres no settings in it i have some in the gameusersettings but my game.ini was empty no settings or anything?

    Again, this is expert settings. You will need to add them in yourself.

    Example:

    Code
    1. TamingSpeedMultiplier=1.0
    2. HarvestAmountMultiplier=1.0
    3. XPMultiplier=1.0
    4. MatingIntervalMultiplier=1.0
    5. BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=1.0
    6. EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=1.0
    7. BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=1.0
    8. BabyImprintAmountMultiplier=1.0
    9. HexagonRewardMultiplier=1.0

    What you could also do is use the WebUI to do all those settings, save. Then go over to expert. Some of them will move over.

    Or use the file browser and edit them there.

    thank you for your help i don't know if i was saying it right or if you didn't understand but i reinstalled the server and i have the game.ini files. the first time i opened it it was completely empty and i know i can add the code in it just i wanted the default code. i was also missing some gameusersettings i honestly think it didnt start up the server right the first time i really do appreciate the help while i was trying to figure it out :)
