How to Change the Game Mode on Your Aska Server

How to switch between Normal and Custom mode on your Aska dedicated server to unlock advanced world settings.

Aska has two server modes:

Normal Mode

Default gameplay — standard settings, no customization of world parameters.

mode = normal

Unlocks all advanced settings — invasion difficulty, monster density, day/night length, terrain, populations, and more.

mode = custom

Once set to custom, you can configure all the advanced settings listed in the Server Configuration guide.

📝 Note: There is no Creative mode or console commands in Aska. Custom mode is the closest to sandbox-style configuration.
