How do I set up my The Isle server (growth, species, wildlife, weather)?

Name, slots, password, admins, queue, weather, wildlife and RCON are set in GamePanelServer Options and written to Game.ini at every start. Everything else is changed in TheIsle/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini, with the server stopped.

  1. For everyday settings: GamePanelServer Options, then restart.

  2. For the others (growth, mutations, playable species, global chat…): stop the server, open TheIsle/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini in GamePanelFiles, edit the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] section, then start.

  3. "Wild animals (AI)" (SPAWN_AI) spawns the non-playable wildlife: fish, small prey. It takes a little more memory and CPU.

Common errors

  • ServerName, MaxPlayerCount, bServerPassword, ServerPassword, bQueueEnabled, QueuePort, bRconEnabled, RconPort, RconPassword, bServerDynamicWeather and bSpawnAI are replaced at every start by the Options: change them in the panel.
  • A file edited while the server runs can be rewritten by the game when it stops: always stop the server first.
How do I use the RCON of my The Isle server?

Turn on "RCON" (RCON_ENABLED) in GamePanelServer Options, restart, then connect a The Isle Evrima compatible tool to the server IP address, on the RCON port (RCON_PORT) with the RCON password (RCON_PASSWORD).

  1. GamePanelServer Options: set "RCON" to 1. The RCON port and the RCON password, created with your order, are shown in the same place.

  2. Restart the server.

  3. In your tool (Discord bot, The Isle admin software), enter the server IP address, the RCON port and the password.

Common errors

  • The Isle Evrima has its own RCON protocol: a Source or Minecraft RCON client cannot connect to it.
  • The RCON port is not the game port shown at the top of the console.
How do I schedule automatic restarts of my The Isle server?

A scheduled task restarts the server at a set time. Every restart also installs the latest server version.

In the GamePanel

your serverSystemSchedulesOpen

  1. GamePanelSystemSchedulesCreate, choose Empty task, Continue, then the name, frequency and time, and Create the task.

  2. On the task page, Create a task: Send a power action, Restart the server, offset 0.

  3. Trigger runs the task right away to try it, restart included.

Common errors

  • Pick a quiet hour: connected players are disconnected during the restart.
