How to Add or Update Your Terraria Server Password

By default, Terraria servers are open to the public, meaning anyone with your IP address can join. To increase the security of your server and prevent unwanted players from entering, you can set a password. This ensures only those with the correct password can access your server.

You can easily change your server’s password through the Terraria Server Properties in the Config section of your control panel.
