Using the Playlist function

The Plutonium team have implemented a very simple way for you to configure your server if you prefer it. Using something called “Playlists”, it allows you to just pick a numbered “Playlist ID” and the server will run using those settings. No configuring gametype information, map rotations or anything.

  1. Open up the dedicated.cfg from File Manager

  2. Scroll down to line 183

  3. Uncomment the lines 183-191

    Playlists disabled

    Playlists disabled

    Playlists enabled

    Playlists enabled


  4. Per the image above, you can now edit the values between ““.

  5. Using the table below you can put a number from 1-57 on line 184 (set playlist “1")

    //2 - Free For All (18 Players) (score 1500)     //

  1. For example setting set playlist "1" to set playlist "28" puts your server into a Gun Game mode with 6 player support.

  2. That’s it! Playlists allows you to easily setup a server config.

  3. Simply start your server and you will be good to go! ⭐
