How to enable PvP on your Hytale server

Want to disable fall damage on your Hytale server? You can turn it off by editing your world config.json file. This is ideal for creative builds, parkour maps, and servers where you do not want players dying from drops.

This guide shows you how to disable fall damage on your Hytale server on our Hytale Server Hosting.

 

NOTE: If you edit JSON while the server is running, your changes can be overwritten. Save your edits, then restart the server.

 

  1. Open your Hytale server in the control panel, then click the Files tab.

  2. Navigate to your world folder by opening universe/worlds/.

    Each folder here is a world. Open the one you want to apply the change to.

  3. Inside your world folder, find config.json and double click it to edit.

  4. Find the fall damage setting:

    "IsFallDamageEnabled": true

    If it is missing, add it near the other gameplay settings. Make sure commas are correct so the JSON stays valid:

    "IsPvpEnabled": false,
    "IsFallDamageEnabled": true,
  5. Change it to disable fall damage:

    "IsFallDamageEnabled": false

    Editing IsFallDamageEnabled to false

  6. Save the file, then restart your server to apply the change.

 

That's it. After restarting, fall damage will be disabled in that world.

 

If the server will not start after editing, you have likely broken the JSON formatting. This is usually a missing comma. Undo the change and try again carefully. If you need help doing this, please contact support.
