If your group wants the world to wait until someone returns, enable Pause When Empty. The server remains running in TCAdmin so players can reconnect, but the game pauses while it is empty.
Using Config Editor
- Stop your Stormforge server in TCAdmin.
- Open Configuration Files and click Config Editor beside
settings.json. - Tick Pause When Empty.
- Click Save & Exit, then start the server.
Leave the box unticked if you want the world to continue running when nobody is connected. This option is above World Settings and can be changed with any world preset.
Using Text Editor
Stop the server, open Configuration Files and choose Text Editor beside settings.json. Change the existing top-level pauseWhenEmpty entry:
"pauseWhenEmpty": trueUse false to keep the world running while empty. Keep the rest of the file, click Save & Exit and start the server. JSON uses true and false without quotation marks.
