Set Up Twitch Integration for 7 Days to Die

How Twitch integration works on 7DTD servers and how to configure it for streamers.

7 Days to Die has built-in Twitch integration that lets viewers interact with streamers' gameplay by spending points to spawn zombies, trigger events, and more.

How It Works

Viewers earn Pimp Points by watching and chatting (session currency — resets each stream)
Viewers earn Special Points by cheering with Bits (persist across sessions)
Points are spent to spawn zombies, supply drops, buffs, and debuffs on the streamer
Spawned entities display the viewer's name

Server Configuration

In serverconfig.xml:

<property name="TwitchServerPermission" value="90" />
<property name="TwitchBloodMoonAllowed" value="false" />

Setting	Default	Description
`TwitchServerPermission`	`90`	Minimum permission level required to use Twitch integration
`TwitchBloodMoonAllowed`	`false`	Allow Twitch events during blood moon nights

Setting Up a Streamer

The streamer must have permission level 90 or lower in serveradmin.xml:

<user steamID="76561198012345678" name="StreamerName" permission_level="90" />

Alternatively, grant full admin (level 0) if the streamer is also an admin
In-game: the streamer goes to ESC → Options → Twitch and logs in with their Twitch account

Blood Moon Twitch Events

With TwitchBloodMoonAllowed set to false (default), viewer actions are disabled during blood moon nights to reduce chaos
Set to true for maximum viewer interaction at all times

Customizing Twitch Events

The events, point costs, and cooldowns are configured in:

twitch.xml
twitch_events.xml

These files are found in the ConfigsDump folder inside your world save directory. Edit them to customize which events viewers can trigger.
