Set up an ARK server and change your map, rates and mods from the panel, without editing a single config file.
Why the pages help: ARK settings normally live in two files,
Game.iniandGameUserSettings.ini. Put a setting in the wrong one and it does nothing, with no error. The panel puts each setting in the right file for you. Click View File if you want the raw file.
Your server shows in the in-game server list with your map, and your new rates apply after the restart.
Make sure you restarted after saving. If you edited the raw file, check the setting is in the right file, or set it from the panel page instead.
