This helps you build a thriving community and makes your ECO gameplay more enjoyable with friends or new players. If you\u2019re hosting your ECO server with <a href=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\">GGServers<\/a>, the process is straightforward, reliable, and quick to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Access Your GGServers Control Panel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by logging into your control panel at <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\">panel.ggservers.com<\/a>. This is where you\u2019ll manage all your ECO server settings, mods, and configurations. Our panel is built to be user-friendly, even if this is your first time managing a dedicated game server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Stop the Server Before Making Changes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before applying any changes, it\u2019s important to stop your server to avoid configuration errors. Simply click the stop button in your control panel.<\/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<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Navigate to Server Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the left-hand side of your GGServers control panel, find the option called <em>Server Settings<\/em>.
