Settings
Key Killing Floor 2 server settings at a glance
PCServer-KFGame.ini distributes its values across the [Engine.GameInfo], [Engine.AccessControl], [Engine.GameReplicationInfo], and [KFGame.KFGameInfo] sections. The generator writes these keys for you with their default values.

| ServerName[Engine.GameReplicationInfo] | Default: Killing Floor 2 Server | Your server’s name in the server browser, up to 64 characters. |
| AdminPassword[Engine.AccessControl] | Default: empty | The admin's master password and the WebAdmin login password for the “Admin” user. Without an admin password, nobody can log in to WebAdmin. |
| GamePassword[Engine.AccessControl] | Default: empty | Password for joining the server. Leave it blank if you want your server to be public. |
| MaxPlayers[Engine.GameInfo] | Default: 6 | Maximum player count, from 1 to 12 in the generator. |
| DefaultServerGame[Engine.GameInfo] | Default: KFGameContent.KFGameInfo_Survival | Dedicated Server game mode as a class path: KFGameInfo_Survival (Survival), KFGameInfo_WeeklySurvival (Weekly Outbreak) or KFGameInfo_VersusSurvival (Versus Survival). |
| GameDifficulty[Engine.GameInfo] | Default: 1 | Difficulty: 0 = Normal, 1 = Hard, 2 = Suicidal, 3 = Hell on Earth. |
| GameLength[KFGame.KFGameInfo] | Default: 1 | Game length: 0 = short (4 waves), 1 = normal (7 waves), 2 = long (10 waves). |

| KickVotePercentage[KFGame.KFGameInfo] | Default: 0.66 | The proportion of players, from 0 to 1, who must agree to a kick. Applies only while kick voting (bDisableKickVote) is enabled. |
| bUseMapList[KFGame.KFGameInfo] | Default: true | Uses your custom map list instead of the full default map list. |
| GameMapCycles[KFGame.KFGameInfo] | Default: (Maps=("KF-BurningParis","KF-Bioticslab","KF-Outpost","KF-VolterManor","KF-Catacombs","KF-EvacuationPoint")) | The map rotation as an Unreal tuple. Only takes effect if bUseMapList is enabled. |
What the Generator Intentionally Does Not Cover
- Endless mode: The generator only offers Survival, Weekly Outbreak, and Versus Survival.
- Single starting map: The file has no dedicated map key. Set the rotation through GameMapCycles and the starting map through the launch parameters.
- AdminContact: This key is no longer in the current reference file, so it will not be written.
- Workshop maps and mutators: the generator does not set up downloads or Mods.
- More than 12 players: MaxPlayers is limited to 1–12 in the generator.
Guide
How to configure your Killing Floor 2 server
From the default configuration to the restart: how to put your Killing Floor 2 server config on your server.
- 1
Step 1
Open the generator or import an existing file
The generator starts with the default PCServer-KFGame.ini configuration. If you already have a file, paste its contents into the import field or upload it as an .ini or .txt file up to 2 MB. Known values are imported; unknown lines are preserved.
- 2
Step 2
Select mode
In “Easy” mode, describe your server to the AI in your own words and apply only the suggestions you confirm. In “Advanced” mode, set each option yourself.
- 3
Step 3
Set server name, passwords, and player count
Enter the server name, set the admin password for WebAdmin and, if needed, a join password. Set the maximum player count between 1 and 12.
- 4
Step 4
Choose game mode, difficulty and waves
Choose Survival, Weekly Outbreak or Versus Survival, a difficulty from Normal to Hell on Earth, a game length of 4, 7 or 10 waves, and the Friendly Fire multiplier.
- 5
Step 5
Configure chat and voting
Set the message of the day (MOTD) and website link, and enable or disable kick voting and its threshold, map voting, public text chat, and voice chat.
- 6
Step 6
Set map rotation
Enable the custom map list (bUseMapList) and enter your maps in GameMapCycles, for example (Maps=("KF-BurningParis","KF-Outpost")).
- 7
Step 7
Check preview and export
Check PCServer-KFGame.ini in the live preview. Then copy or download it, or share a link that contains no passwords.
- 8
Step 8
Upload the file and restart the server
Upload the file to your server’s KFGame/Config/ folder. On Linux, it must be named LinuxServer-KFGame.ini. Then restart the server, as Killing Floor 2 reads the file only at startup.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the Killing Floor 2 server config
File location, settings, map rotation, passwords, restarting and Easy Mode—briefly explained.
In your server’s KFGame/Config/ folder: .\KFGame\Config\PCServer-KFGame.ini on Windows, ./KFGame/Config/LinuxServer-KFGame.ini on Linux. On a ZAP-Hosting server, you can open and edit it using the file manager in the panel.
No. Copying or downloading does not change anything on your server yet. Upload the file and restart the server, as Killing Floor 2 only reads PCServer-KFGame.ini at startup.
GameDifficulty: 0 = Normal, 1 = Hard, 2 = Suicidal, 3 = Hell on Earth. GameLength: 0 = short with 4 waves, 1 = normal with 7 waves, 2 = long with 10 waves. The defaults are Hard and 7 waves.
Survival, Weekly Outbreak and Versus Survival. The generator writes the mode as a class path in DefaultServerGame, for example KFGameContent.KFGameInfo_Survival. It does not offer Endless mode. Set MaxPlayers between 1 and 12; the default is 6.
Enable the custom map list (bUseMapList) and enter the maps in GameMapCycles using Unreal format, such as (Maps=("KF-BurningParis","KF-Outpost")). GameMapCycles has no effect if the map list is disabled. The generator does not download Workshop maps.
AdminPassword is your server’s master password and the WebAdmin login password for the “Admin” user. Without an admin password, nobody can log in to WebAdmin. GamePassword is the password for joining the server: leave it blank for a public server.
Yes. Paste its contents into the import field or upload the file as an .ini or .txt file up to 2 MB. The generator imports the values it recognizes and preserves unknown lines in the generated file.
Describe the server you want in your own words, such as “A challenging Hell on Earth server with long matches.” The AI suggests suitable values, explains each change, and applies only what you confirm. Your passwords are not sent to the AI; you enter those yourself.
Yes. The form, Easy Mode, import, copying, downloading, and share links all work without an account. Easy Mode is briefly rate-limited to prevent excessive requests. Admin and join passwords are masked in the form and never included in the share link.
