Every value in ServerSettings.ini in plain English — what it does, which value suits your server and what happens when you push it too far.
Which files control your server, what sits in which one, and the order to work through them. Ten minutes and you know where to find what.
Your single player game runs on a server — your own. That is why you configure it with the same file every server owner uses. Where it lives, what works and what does not.
Tick rate, the encounter system, spawners, cargo drops, bunker rotation and virtualization — how the server keeps its world running and which setting reaches into what.
Where the config files live, what you cannot change on a rented server, what running your own costs in effort – and how to tell when it is time to switch.
The three wipe switches, what each one takes with it, the quiet alternative – and the mistake that makes a server start from scratch on every restart.
Tick rate is a result, not a dial. What actually creates load on a SCUM server, how virtualisation holds it back, and the order to investigate when things stutter.
