How to use 7 Days to Die serverconfig.xml generator?

A 7 Days to Die server is configured in an XML file of <property name="…" value="…"/> entries. Since V3.0, difficulty, XP, loot and blood moon settings are grouped in SandboxCode. This tool builds the full file without sending anything to a server.

  1. Enter the name, password, region and player count.

  2. Choose the world (Navezgane or RWG), seed and size; paste your SandboxCode (generated in game).

  3. Secure Telnet (password) and leave the web dashboard off if unused.

  4. Download the file under a unique name (e.g. myserver.xml) and start the server with -configfile=myserver.xml.
