How to turn Friendly Fire off?

[SuperDave]

In my "GameUserSettings.ini" I have the following variable set: ServerPVE=True. Is this not the way to disable friendly fire damage from other players? If not, what is the correct way? Thanks for your time, Dave

Wrong placement. you put the line in game.ini if I remember right. and the code is wrong ServerPVE is just so players can't kill each other or other peoples tames iam looking for teh FF code now.

bPvEDisableFriendlyFire=True makes it so you can't damage your dino's buildings ect ect.
the down side to this is if 1 of your dino's die's you can harvest it eigther.

In your GameUserSettings.ini file (to disable PVP and enable PVE):

[ServerSettings]
ServerPVE=True



In your Game.ini file (to disable friendly fire):

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
bPvEDisableFriendlyFire=true

[SuperDave]

Thank you both!

I'll give this a try. FYI, my "Game.ini" file is empty, so i'm going to assume you meant to paste this further down in the "GameUserSetings.ini" instead:

[ServerSettings]
ServerPVE=True

[/script/shootergame.shootergameusersettings]
bPvEDisableFriendlyFire=true

No what we mean is you need to copy paste

[/script/shootergame.shootergameusersettings]
bPvEDisableFriendlyFire=true

In to your game.ini,

Beacuse game.ini is empty just means you havn't added any code to it, there are a number of different codes that you can put into the game.ini folder from pooping interval, egg laying, babymatureing to name but a few,

As you start making your server the way you want it, you will find you need to use both GameUserSettings.ini and Game.ini to change different settings in the game.

Ahah! Ok thank you. I've found references to some types of server property arguments available online, but not all of them (as you mention above). What's the best online resource for all of these potential Game.ini variables?

Umm, no it's not. The one that is named "game.ini" is the one that is used and that you have to edit to change things.

This just worked for me. When I inserted anything into Game.ini it was deleted on server restart.

Right click the game.ini file, click properties, then check the box for "read only". Be sure to uncheck it before trying to edit it.

Hi,

When you run the game, just after choosing to play in single player mode, in the settings on the left side, look at the tab General, you should find a square to check where you can enable or disable friendly damages. It's called "Disable Friendly Fire"

you realize that dedicated server cannot be run from singleplayer, right?
after all... it's... called... server...
