How To Change Your Eco Server Name

Set a custom name and description for your Eco dedicated server that appear in the in-game server browser.

The server name is what players see in the multiplayer browser. A clear, descriptive name helps players find your server and sets expectations about your community.

Change the Server Name

Stop your server

In the XGamingServer Panel, go to Console and stop your server.

Open Network.eco

Click Files in the sidebar, navigate to the Configs folder, and open Network.eco.

Edit the name

Find the Name field and change its value:

"Name": "My Eco Server"

(Optional) Add a description

While you're in the file, you can also set a description shown when players select your server:

"Description": "Friendly community server | No griefing | Active admins"

Save and start

Click Save Content and start the server from Console. The new name appears in the browser once the server finishes loading.

Naming Tips

A well-chosen server name attracts the right players:

Tip	Why
Include your region — `[US East]`, `[EU]`, `[AU]`	Players look for low-ping servers
Mention your playstyle — `Casual`, `Hardcore`, `No Griefing`	Sets expectations
Add your community name	Brand recognition
Keep it readable — avoid ALL CAPS and excessive symbols	More inviting

Examples

[US East] Green Planet | Casual | No Griefing
[EU] Eco Builders United | Active Admins
[AU] Meteor Rush | Hardcore | 30 Day Meteor

Public vs Private Visibility

The server name only matters in the browser if your server is public:

"PublicServer": true

Set this to false if you want a private server that players can only join via direct connect.

The server name is purely cosmetic — changing it does not affect your world, player data, or any other settings. Change it as often as you like.
