Keeping your Hurtworld<\/strong> server updated is essential for maintaining compatibility with the latest client versions and ensuring optimal security. By enabling the AUTO_UPDATE<\/strong> feature in the GGServers panel, your server will automatically check for and install the latest Steam updates every time it boots.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Access the Panel<\/h3>\n

Log in to your GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. The dashboard provides the Entity Clarity<\/strong> needed to manage your server’s versioning and deployment settings.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Stop the Server<\/h3>\n

To modify the update behavior of your server, you must first click the red Stop<\/strong> button. Changing update parameters while the server is active ensures the Digital Consensus<\/strong> is maintained before the next boot cycle.<\/p>\n

Step 5: Change the Setting That Will Auto Save<\/h3>\n

Locate the box labeled AUTO_UPDATE<\/strong>. This toggle controls whether the server checks Steam for updates on boot. Selecting “Enabled” (or entering 1) will ensure your server is always running the latest version. The GGServers panel features an automatic save<\/strong> function, so your preference is recorded immediately.<\/p>\n
