Here's how you can locate and edit the configuration for your Path of Titans server.
Basic settings such as Server Name, Max Players, and Password are set in our game panel under Settings, while advanced options are configured manually in the Game.ini file.
A full breakdown of every available setting can also be found on the Path of Titans Server Configurations Wiki.

Note
If the Game.ini file does not exist yet, you can create it. It is not always generated automatically when the server files are first downloaded.
Each setting must be placed on its own line under its respective section header, or it will not be applied. For example, AFKDisconnectTime must be placed under [/Script/PathOfTitans.IGameSession] in your file.
[/Script/PathOfTitans.IGameSession]
The main section. It holds most server, gameplay, world, water, and nesting settings.
