Settings on Nukkit PM1E are located in server.properties file. Additionally, a few other data files are created in the server folder automatically. This page explains what those do.

ops.txt

saves the names of players with operator permission, lowercase and one per line

it's recommended to use 'op' and 'deop' commands to modify

white-list.txt

saves the names of whitelisted players, lowercase and one per line

it's recommended to use 'whitelist' command to modify

banned-players.json

saves banned player names

it's recommended to use 'ban' and 'pardon' commands to modify

banned-ips.json

saves banned IP addresses

it's recommended to use 'banip' and 'pardonip' commands to modify

maps.yml

saves a global counter of known used map IDs

do not modify

server.properties

saves all settings

some of them can be applied using 'reload' command while the server is running, some require a restart

restarting the server is always recommended after modifying these

motd

server name / text which shows on the server list

note: can't be empty

sub-motd

second line for motd

note: shows only for players in local network when viewing the server on the friends list in game

note: can't be empty since 1.16.210

server-port

server's port

note: there can't be two servers running in the same port

note: you will need to port forward in order to have your server publicly accessible

note: bedrock edition uses UDP

server-ip

ip where server runs

default is 0.0.0.0 and you don't usually need to change this

note: do not edit unless you know what you are doing

view-distance

maximum view distance in chunks

bigger value = more chunks loaded = more ram & cpu usage

white-list

allow only players on the whitelist to join the server

use whitelist command or modify white-list.txt to add players to whitelist

achievements

enable player achievements

announce-player-achievements

broadcast achievement earned messages to all players

max-players

maxium number of players online at once

spawn-animals

enable animal spawning

spawn-mobs

enable monster spawning

spawning works by the server's difficulty setting

note: spawn-animals, spawn-mobs or both must be enabled if you want anything to be spawned

entity-despawn-task

note: there are special cases such as the ender dragon, withers and villagers that do not despawn

enable only if you have a plugin to implement those

shutdown-message

message that shows for players when you stop the server

use § for colors and §n for new line

save-player-data

enable saving of player inventory, position, first join time etc.

recommended to keep this enabled if you have a single world server and no other plugins handling the player data

can be usually safely disabled for creative, lobby or minigame only servers

for multiworld many gamemode servers it's recommended to use multiworld inventory system like WorldEssentials and disable this

gamemode

you don't need to enable this for your server to appear on bedrock edition server lists

note: rcon isn't very secure way to remote control the server

note: rcon uses the same port (but TCP) as the server

rcon.password

password for rcon

auto-save

note: if disabled, changes to worlds are not saved automatically even on unload, use plugin to save manually if needed

you can use worlds-level-auto-save-disabled to only disable the auto save task instead
