⚙️ What Is `server.cfg`?

The server.cfg file is where your Rust server’s core settings live. It controls everything from the server name and description, to world size, seed, tickrate, and more. If this file is misconfigured, your server might not show up in the browser, wipe incorrectly, or crash during launch.

Instead of manually writing and Googling every line of config, our tool lets you generate a fully optimised file with just a few clicks.
