By default, Abiotic Factor servers apply death penalties that can significantly impact gameplay. Frequent in-game deaths may result in players dropping items and losing durability, making progress more difficult. However, server admins have the option to modify this setting. By enabling a lighter death penalty, players retain their items upon death—only item durability is reduced. This small adjustment can create a more forgiving experience without compromising challenge.
Disabling the Death Penalties on your Abiotic Factor Server
1. Log in to your Game Control Panel.
2. Before making any modifications, stop the server from running by clicking the Stop button.
3. Navigate to Configuration Files.
4. On the Configuration Files, you will see the AbioticFactor\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\SandboxSettings.ini file which is the General Server Config. Click the Text Editor.
5. On the Text Editor, look for Death Penalty line and disable the setting by setting the value to 0.
6. After editing, click the Save button to apply the changes.
