    I have a dedicated server set up, but only to find out I can't find settings for planet sizes, production times and so on. How would I go about changing these for the server? I hoped I could just get the same settings as for single player/ coop mode, just that I could run it on a dedicated computer.

    There is 3 settings i want to change at least which is

    - Planet size, as the large planets is even smaller than I would have prefered.
    - Keep inventory when dying.
    - Production time (but i think I managed to change that).

    I found a solution to keeping our inventory at least, by adding the following line in the gameoptions.yalm:

    DiffPlayerBackpackDrop: DropNothing

    Although it puzzles me why this isn't included, not even deactivated as a comment.

    Most likely because there is a Setting in SP that lets you choose to keep nothing, everything or just whats in the Toolbar.

    Yes. That is absolutely correct. I just think it is weird this feature is working on servers but there no mention of it.

    The idea is basically to have a dedicated server as close to a coop game as possible, except it will be available at all times and we can progress as we please instead of having to depend on each other all the time.

    Right now I am exploring ways to get the large planet option for my server. That is to say, the same seed and planet size as we started of in single player/coop so we can continue where we left off.
