TruWrecks Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Linux GameUserSettings.ini Overwriting On my Linux servers since update 312.72 the GameUserSettings.ini is being overwritten every time I boot up my server unless I lock the file as Read Only. Then the server gives me several errors before eventually booting into the game. This file should be appended if needed, but never over-written! Every section in the file is being wiped and reset back to defaults. This is not acceptable in a custom environment. Please investigate and see if this issue can be resolved. I will be happy to provide more info information if needed. Server is Debian 10.3 Buster - Stable Server version: 312.72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylenThunder Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Are you using LGSM, or did you just install via SteamCMD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkfields Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 You have to stop the server, then edit the files, then restart the server. If you edit the files while the server is running, they will be ignored and get overwritten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruWrecks Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I am using SteamCMD. I am editing the files while the server is STOPPED. I make my changed and save. Then I start the server. After the server starts I open the files and 90% of my settings are wiped. These are settings I have used for months on my servers so it is not my settings. I have been running Ark servers on Linux since 2015 and this is has happened before on another update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
