Server name stuck on Server7727
« on: September 22, 2020, 07:06:57 pm »
Hey! I have gone and got ourself a server hosted by Citadel servers, but I am unsure how to change the name of the server, it's stuck on Server7227 and changes to Server8421, I want to rename it to something that will stay permanent, anyone know how I can do this?

First of all, I got the obligation to say that you made a mistake in going with Citadel Servers. The way to fix this is via the config there's a string called set_server_name *name here*. So if I wanted the server to be called citadel I would make sure it's set_server_name citadel. You need to access the FTP to find the config.txt though.

When a hosting company offer you things such as CPU priority and dedicated core you should run and don't look back. It means they are having more servers than logical cores otherwise there would be no benefits of real-time priority. Dedicating a logical core is what a serious company would do free of charge.

Thanks, appreciate the info, and yes I admit Citadel probably wasn't the best move on this one
