    Hello

    What settings have to be made on a dedicated server so that wrecks that have been dismantled reappear?

    Hello,

    you need to set the POI Regeneration in the GameOptions.yaml to true
    Then you also need to check in the playfield files if the POIs you want to regenerate have the regenerate flag with the timer

    Where can I find the Playfield file?
    I made the changes in GameOptions.yaml and it did nothing.
    I found this in the scenario directory for Eden (we play with Reforged Eden).

    If you already started the save game you need to edit the file under the save game.
    I strongly recommend using EAH to manage your server however as this would allow you to change all these settings easily.

    Excuse my stupidity. EAH?

    ..
    OK... I have found the Emp Admin Helper page.
    But if I understand correctly, the tool must be on the server where Empyrion is running.
    We have the server hosted at Nitrado. That will hardly work then.

    If you're on Nitrado, you've got a simple solution. Go to the web menu where you can turn your server on/off. On your left, go to the Setting tab, then “General”. Once inside, you can configure your server very easily. If you scroll down a little, you'll probably see the “Regenerate POIs” option.

    Now, if this still isn't the case, it's because the POI you're targeting in the playground file doesn't have the regenerate flag with the timer. To access this “playground” file, you need software such as FileZilla, WinSCP (which I use) or EAH as suggested by ravien_ff (however, I'm not familiar with this software).

    Once you've downloaded one of these programs, log in using your Nitrado login, which you'll find at the bottom of the web menu (where you can turn your server on/off). Once connected, go to empyrion/saves/Games/“name of your game save by default ‘DediGame’”/Templates/“name of your playfield if you're on Haven go to the Haven file”/playfield.yaml.
    (I'm not sure about this last step - I looked it up for you but didn't test it. I don't recommend modifying files at random, which can break the gameplay of your game, but we can verify the information you're looking for).

    Do a CTRL+F and search for “POI”, look for the name of the corresponding POI, for example “GroupeName: Wreckage” and see if you see
    “-Key: RegenAfter
    “Value: 720”

    I'm not sure but I think that's what Taelyn was talking about above. I think I translate it as The POI name “Wreckage” will be regenerated after 720 seconds/Minutes or hours. I think it's in minutes but no certainty. If your POI doesn't have what I've just explained to you, this surely explains why your POI doesn't regenerate. Once again, I'd advise you not to make any changes yourself without a full save of your game or confirmation from someone more experienced than me. I hope I've been able to help you, have a nice day.
