All server configurations are done on the Fragify panel in variables available in the Configure option and in your server.cfg, which can be accessed via File Manager in TheForestDedicatedServer_Data/forest/config directory.

Keep in mind that the server needs to be restarted after modifying server.cfg so the changes can take effect.
