How do I enable flying in caves on my server?

[Vatch]

Where do I enter "-ForceAllowCaveFlyers"?

I'm pretty sure you don't need to if it's your own server. Unoffical servers by default allows flyers in caves. The new option is for those who want to disable it.

^Depends on the map, best bet is to just put it on.
Anyway, it's a launch command so you put it in your custom command line(not console). I have read some users using ForceAllowCaveFlyers=True in their GameUserSettings.ini but I can't confirm that works or not.

Where would the cutom cammand line be? Is it part of the startserver.bat?

"* Made Flyers able to go into caves by default on custom maps, and also you can force Flyer into caves via server commandline "-ForceAllowCaveFlyers""
Yes, so much for that.

-ForceAllowCaveFlyers goes on the command line you use to run a dedicated server such as this example pulled from the wiki

start ShooterGameServer.exe "TheIsland?listen?ServerCrosshair=True?AllowThirdPersonPlayer=True?MapPlayerLocation=True?MaxStructuresInRange=100" -ForceAllowCaveFlyers

No idea how you do it if you aren't running a server that way maybe it does work in GameUserSettings.ini? I don't know I just used it in the command line because I could.

For Single player you put the command in the launch options in steam.

Launch options as in when you right click ARK and go down to properties it'll say "Set launch options..." is that what you mean? (I'm sorry no one was specific, I'm trying to get it to work for SP)

Yes

Already answered in the OTHER thread you posted in.

You need to add the forceallowcaveflyers setting, but as a server argument. The ingame checkbox on the settings page doesn't work, and adding it to the .ini files will not work.

Right click ark in your game listing.
Click on properties on the pop-up menu.
On the page that appears, look for the "launch options" box, and enter
-ForceAllowCaveFlyers

The uppercase letters aren't required by the way, that's just a convention that makes those things easier to read since they can't have any spaces. The start of every "word" gets an uppercase character. It's not case sensitive.
