    Hello All,

    I am attempting to set up server and would like to make it so there is no POI respawn. I figured out that command.

    Where I am asking for help is it possible to setup the starter systems & planets playfields to be respawnable while the rest of the playfields can respown POIs?

    Thank you,

    Renainn

    POI Regen is either ON or OFF. No middle way

    What you need to do is remove the RegenKey from all POIs on ALL playfields you dont want it to respawn on
    Then those wont respawn

    Why are you saying it cannot be done ? Did you understand what @Taelyn explained ? It can be done but you will have to do some work because it's either all on or all off by default. If you want some to be on and some to be off, then you will have to set that up in each specific playfield file, for each specific POI.

    In addition to setting it up manually with POI regeneration, you can also configure scheduled POI/deposit/playfield wipes using a server admin tool such as EAH to wipe the starting planets, etc.

    You only forget to mention that EAH will not work on servers that make use of a Hoster.

    There only a hand full of hosters who make use of the Master/Slave function of EAH.
    Hosters who dont use this you have to result to the Lite tool and here you cant make use of this mechanic as it needs file access for this and Lite does not have that function


    So your best bet is to modify the playfield files as this will work everywhere.
    It only requires some tweaking and knowledge how YAML works (before you break everything) and a full wipe of the SaveGame

    Thank you for the additional info. After reading your reply Taelyn, wondered if the reverse could apply. Making the server a no POI regeneration and using the method you stated of setting up those particular play fields you wanted to have regeneration. raven_ff showed a way to do this using EAH.
    Again, both of you thank you.
