How to Enable PvP in Hytale
By default, Player vs. Player (PvP) combat might be disabled to prevent griefing. You can toggle this setting instantly using the world config command via chat or the server console.
Note: You must have Operator (OP) status to use these commands in-game.
Method 1: Enabling PvP In-Game
If you are logged into your server, follow these steps to enable combat for the world you are currently in:
- Open the chat window (usually Enter or T).
- Type the following command:
/world config pvp true
A confirmation message should appear indicating the configuration has been updated.
Method 2: Using the Console
If you are unable to join the game, you can execute the command from the MintServers control panel.
- Navigate to the Console tab of your server.
- Enter the command without the slash:
world config pvp true
Enabling PvP for a Specific World
If you run a multi-world server (like a lobby and an arena), you can target a specific world using the world flag.
/world config pvp true --world=your_world_name
Disabling PvP
To turn combat off, simply change "true" to "false".
/world config pvp false
