How to Configure Your Voyagers of Nera Server

Want to rename your Voyagers of Nera server, add a password, or tweak how the world plays for your crew? Everything is handled from two pages in your MintServers game panel: Game Settings for the basics, and Gameplay Settings for the world modifiers.

This guide walks through both pages and explains what every option does.

⚠️ Important Warning
Always make sure your server is completely stopped on your MintServers panel before changing any settings, then start it again once you have saved. The new settings load when the server starts.

Changing the Basic Server Settings

The Game Settings page controls how your server appears and who can join it.

Log into your MintServers game panel and click the Stop button to shut down your server.

Under the Tools section in the left-hand sidebar, click Game Settings.

Change any of the four options described below.

Save your changes.

Click the Start button to boot your server with the new settings.

Game Settings Options

Server Name
The public name other players see when browsing servers. The default is Hosted by MintServers.

Server Password
The password players must enter to join. Leave it blank and your server is public, so anyone can join.

Max Players
The maximum number of players connected at once. The default is 10, which is also the highest the game allows.

Autosave Timer
How often the server saves automatically, in seconds. The default is 300 (every 5 minutes). Unless you have a specific reason to change it, we recommend keeping the default. If you do change it, stay between 120 and 900 seconds.

💡 Tip
Players find your server by typing its name into the in-game server browser, so a short and unique Server Name makes it much easier to find. To learn how to join, see Voyagers of Nera - Joining the server.

Changing the Gameplay Settings

The Gameplay Settings page holds the world modifiers, like how much damage enemies deal or whether items drop when a player dies.

Log into your MintServers game panel and click the Stop button to shut down your server.

Under the Tools section in the left-hand sidebar, click Gameplay Settings.

Type new values into the number boxes, or click a toggle to switch it on or off.

Click the Save button at the top right of the page.

Go back to the Console tab and click Start.

Multipliers

These three settings default to 1, which is the normal game experience. A value of 2 doubles the effect and 0.5 halves it. Accepted values range from 0.01 to 10.

Gathering Rate Multiplier
Multiplies the amount of resources you receive from each gathering action.

Enemy Damage Multiplier
Controls how hard enemies hit players. Lower it for a more relaxed game, or raise it for a bigger challenge.

Player Damage Multiplier
Controls how hard players hit enemies.

Toggles

All toggles are off by default. Switching one on removes that game mechanic for everyone on your server.

Disable Equipment Durability
Tools and equipment never break or lose durability.

Disable Drop Items On Death
Players keep everything in their inventory when they die.

Disable Encumbrance
Removes the movement penalty from carrying heavy loads.

Disable Fog Of War
Turns off the fog of war feature.

Disable Weather
Turns off weather in the world.

ℹ️ Settings That Currently Do Nothing
Some options on this page are experimental and are not currently used by the game: XP Gain Rate Modifier, Attrition Rate Modifier, Resource Spawn Rate Modifier, Max Concurrent Attackers, and Disable Construction Requirements. Changing them will not affect your world, so you can safely leave them at their default values.

Editing the Settings File Directly

If you prefer working with the raw file, click the Text Editor button at the top of the Gameplay Settings page. You can also open the file from the Files tab:

    📁 BoatGame (in the main directory of your Files tab)
            📁 Saved
                    📁 PersistedData
                            📁 CustomConfig
                                    📄 CustomGameUserSettings.ini (the Gameplay Settings live here)

Remember to stop your server before editing the file and save it before you start the server again.

🛠️ Troubleshooting Settings Issues

My changes did not apply

Make sure you saved your changes and that the server was started again afterwards. Settings only load when the server starts.

Players cannot find my server

Search for the exact Server Name in the in-game server browser, or connect directly with your server's IP address and port using Direct Connect.

Players cannot join

If you set a Server Password, players need to enter it exactly as you typed it. Clear the field and save if you want the server to be public.

A setting has no effect

Check the list of settings that currently do nothing above. Those options are not used by the game yet.

Once your settings are saved and your server is back online, you are ready to sail!
