How to Set a Password on Your Icarus Server

Password-protect your Icarus dedicated server so only players who know the password can join.

Set a Password

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

Click Files in the sidebar and open Icarus/Saved/Config/ServerSettings.ini. Set:

[/script/icarus.dedicatedserversettings]
JoinPassword=YourPassword

Leave JoinPassword empty (or remove the line) to make the server public.

Click Save Content and start from Console. Players will now be prompted for the password when joining.

Set JoinPassword= to an empty value and restart. The server becomes public again.
