The <strong>Clear Infection<\/strong> setting determines whether a player is cured of the virus when they respawn or if the infection continues to plague their new character. This is a significant factor in the difficulty of your server&#8217;s survival loop. This guide will show you how to adjust this setting on the GGServers panel.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Stop Your HumanitZ Server<\/h3>\n<p>Because this setting affects how player states and health variables are initialized during respawn, you must first stop the server to apply changes. Access your <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\/\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>, select your HumanitZ instance, and click the <strong>Stop<\/strong> button. Wait for the status to show as &#8220;Offline&#8221; before moving forward.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop the HumanitZ server\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The server must be offline to change player health and infection rules.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Access Server Settings<\/h3>\n<p>Once the server is fully stopped, navigate to the sidebar on the left side of the panel. Click on the <strong>Server Settings<\/strong> button to open the configuration dashboard for your HumanitZ dedicated server.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png\" alt=\"Navigating to Server Settings\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Click Server Settings to access the configuration tabs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Open the General Settings Tab<\/h3>\n<p>In the Server Settings menu, click on the <strong>General Settings<\/strong> tab.
