Setting a password is highly recommended if you want to play only with friends or manage a private community without random players joining. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you step by step through the process using the <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started, log in to your <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\">GGServers Game Panel<\/a> with your account credentials. From there, locate and select your Sven Co-op service. Before making any configuration changes, always stop the server to prevent data conflicts and ensure your updates are applied correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"121\" height=\"56\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop The Server\" class=\"wp-image-17502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png 121w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-50x23.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-60x28.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-100x46.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 121px) 100vw, 121px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Stop the Server from your GGServers Panel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the server is stopped, look at the left-hand menu and click on the <strong>Server Settings<\/strong> option. This section contains all the key configuration options you can adjust for your Sven Co-op server, including name, max players, default map, and of course, the password setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"274\" height=\"58\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png\" alt=\"Server Settings Button\" class=\"wp-image-17495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png 274w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-50x11.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-60x13.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-100x21.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Accessing Server Settings in the GGServers Panel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, navigate to the <strong>General Settings<\/strong> tab.

This setting determines whether players will need a password to connect to your server. Enter your desired password in this box. If you want your server to remain open to the public, simply leave this field blank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"407\" height=\"272\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91.png\" alt=\"Sven Co-op Server Password Field\" class=\"wp-image-17669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91.png 407w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91-50x33.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91-60x40.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-91-100x67.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 407px) 100vw, 407px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Password Field in General Settings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you set or remove the password, the panel will automatically save your changes. All that\u2019s left is to restart your server, and your new password protection will be active. Players will now need to enter the correct password in order to join your Sven Co-op server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Securing your game server with a password is a great way to keep your sessions private and prevent unwanted players from disrupting your cooperative gameplay. If you\u2019re looking for even more control, GGServers also allows you to configure maps, adjust player slots, and change other gameplay options right in the same settings panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\ud83d\udca1 Pro tip:<\/em> New to hosting Sven Co-op?
