They used to love playing it the normal way, but since they found out about creative mode they just use that all the time so they dont have to eat, drink, farm materials, and they can fast track them selves to bosses. Basically they like the game, but dont because there is a way to turn off the challege, that is what they do. My sister really hates that they play the game like this, which is the only reason I am asking in case there was a way but I didnt know about it. I have told her if she doesnt want her kids to spend all thier time on Ark using creative mode one thing she can do is remove it from thier computers (her kids are still young enough for her to want to control it).

I am curious to know if there is a command line option for the main game executable to completely remove the ability to enable creative mode. Basically my nephews seem to play the game almost non stop, but they just enable creative mode all the time, even when its disabled for them, they just scroll through the options and tick the box then load into the game and activate creative mode in the menu for thier single player games. I would like it if we could completely remove it from the game using a command line option so that when they load in they cant even see the option to enable it at all. Note: they are not playing on dedicated servers, they only play LAN games or single player. Its just annoying that they refuse to play without creative mode enabled because they just dont want to have it as a survival game at all. If there is a command line option to completely remove it from the game I have been unable to find it in the wikis. If anyone knows of a way either via command line or editing the default config to remove the option so it cannot be activated even in single player that would be helpful.
