How to Change the Maximum Player Count on a Hytale Server

Note

Stop your server before making changes to configuration files, otherwise they will be overwritten by the server.

How to Change the Maximum Player Count

Stop the Server
Stop your server via the management panel.
Open the Configuration File
Connect to your server via SFTP and open the config.json file in the root directory.
Set Player Count
Find the MaxPlayers setting and change the value:
json
```
"MaxPlayers": 20
```
```
"MaxPlayers": 20
```
Start the Server
Start your server for the changes to take effect.

Warning

A higher player count does not automatically mean the server can handle that many players. Available RAM is crucial for actual performance.
