Although the default Squad configuration is suitable for most players, you may wish to dive into the deep customisation that is offered. Most of Squad's server settings are located inside the Squad Server Settings on your server. It is possible to change your server name, description, password, player limit and much more all in one place.
Accessing Your Server Settings
- Access your control panel and go to Files > Config Files.
- Click Squad Server Settings.
