Customize Server Properties in Minecraft (server.properties)

A Minecraft server properties guide

What are server properties?

The server.properties file stores the settings of your Minecraft server. It determines the game mode, the difficulty and the number of players allowed on your server. The server.properties file is a text file with UTF-8 encoding and can be edited with text editors like Notepad and TextEdit. It is important to keep the exact structure of the text file. To simplify the process and avoid errors, you can customize the text file directly in your Pockethost server overview.

Go to the options tab of your server. There you will find the SERVER.PROPERTIES section, which you can expand. Here you can change the properties of your server with a few clicks. After the properties have been adjusted, the server must be restarted for the changes to be applied.
