How to keep a Foundry server running while empty

Foundry pauses simulation when the server is empty by default. Disable that option when production should continue without a connected player.

1. Stop the server and open app.cfg with the Text Editor.
2. Set pause_server_when_empty=false.

   

3. Click Save & Exit and start the server.

This value was verified to persist after a restart. Set it back to true if you do not want time and factory activity to progress while nobody is online.
