How To Turn On Hardcore Mode On Your Longvinter Server

Hardcore mode makes your island much less forgiving. Houses can't be locked with a code, players can remove wood from other players' houses, and turrets can be destroyed. Your server is listed as hardcore in the server browser. It is off by default.

Turning Hardcore Mode On Or Off

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Settings.
  3. 3
    Under Gameplay, enable or disable Hardcore Mode (Read Info).
  4. 4
    Click Save & Restart to apply your changes.

Caution

Hardcore mode lets players get into each other's houses. Tell your players before you turn it on for an island that is already running.

Changing The Hardcore Multipliers

These four settings only do something while hardcore mode is on. Each takes a number, and decimals such as 1.5 work.
