What setting affects fall damage
For some reason the fall damage on my server doesn't exist unless you fall from extremely high up and I'm wanting it to be default. Any ideas?

are by chance "gliding across the side of a cliff? try jumping and landing on a flat surface.

No I mean like you can fly a pteranodon straight up and jump off and take no damage. After doing a bit of research, I found that some how the server has it set to Survival of the Fittest fall damage settings, but no clue how to fix it because I have that mode turned off.

As far as I know there is no official option to turn off or lower fall damage or change fall damage distance.
Maybe there is MODs that alter this, but knowing Studio Wildcard the fall damage might even be map dependant (same as the weather)

I doubt that mainly because it would be extremely weird and also because there's no reason to even think it. It's so random it never would have crossed my mind and I'm very thorough.

OP I'd say you messed with your player resistance. This affects everything except starvation, freezing, drowning etc. You might have singleplayer settings enabled which might affect player resistance.

EDIT nope the singleplayer settings have no effect on resistance. You must have changed the setting yourself.

If I did, I don't know how because I use Host Havoc and the only settings changed was exp multiplier, gathering, mating, and taming. Plus a few mods.

Go through the ini's and use ctrl+f to search for "resis" or something.
the setting you are looking for is "Player Resistance" 0= god mode 3= death wish (higher is more damage from everything... you can die from punching a tree)

Im pretty sure that the map does affect it because I have a ragnarok world right now and I can't jump off anything without taking tons of fall damage

anyone know how to make it do a little less fall damage?

uhhh... should be Player Resistance. drop that closer to 0 and it should lower the damage you take from falling...
