Example result

Example: the generated ServerConfig.json

You set the options using a form or AI Easy Mode, and the generator creates the finished ServerConfig.json for RimWorld Together live. Below are the first lines of the default configuration; your file contains your values and all other settings.

Output

ServerConfig.json
{  "Name": "RimWorld Together Server",  "Description": "",  "DiscordURL": "",  "SteamWorkshopURL": "",  "IP": "0.0.0.0",  "Port": 25555,  "MaxPlayers": 100,  "Verbosity": 0,  "DisplayChatInConsole": false,  "UseUPnP": false,  "UseClientSave": true,  "EnableServerBrowser": true,  "EnableServerTelemetry": true}

Settings

What you can configure for your RimWorld Together server

The generator creates two files: ServerConfig.json for identity, logging, saves, and visibility, and BackupConfig.json for automatic Backups. The key used for each value in the file appears in parentheses.

Server identity (ServerConfig.json)

Server name (Name, up to 40 characters), description (Description, up to 200 characters), Discord invite link (DiscordURL), link to the Steam Workshop Mod collection (SteamWorkshopURL), and maximum player count (MaxPlayers, 1–500, default 100).

Logging (ServerConfig.json)

How much detail the server writes to its logs (Verbosity: Normal, Verbose or Extreme verbose) and whether in-game chat also appears in the server console (DisplayChatInConsole, off by default).

Saves & visibility (ServerConfig.json)

Whether the server accepts save data a player uploads when joining instead of relying only on its own saved state (UseClientSave), whether it appears in the public in-game server browser (EnableServerBrowser), and whether it sends anonymous telemetry to the RimWorld Together project (EnableServerTelemetry). All three are enabled by default.

Automatic Backups (BackupConfig.json)

Whether the server creates Backups (AutomaticBackups), how many hours pass between Backups (IntervalHours, 1–168, default 1), whether old Backups are deleted automatically (AutomaticDeletion), and how many Backups are kept (Amount, 1–100, default 6).

Without an import, IP (0.0.0.0), port (25555), and UseUPnP (false) appear with their default values in ServerConfig.json; with an import, with the values from your file. You can't change them in the form because network infrastructure manages them on a rented server.

Guide

How to create your RimWorld Together server config

From your first setting to a running server: here's how to add ServerConfig.json and BackupConfig.json to your RimWorld Together server.

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Select file

    Choose whether to edit ServerConfig.json or BackupConfig.json at the top of the generator. Both start with the default config, which you can see immediately in the live preview.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Import existing config (optional)

    If you already have a ServerConfig.json or BackupConfig.json, upload it through import or paste its contents. Recognized settings appear directly in the form.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Configure server

    Set the server name, description, Discord and Steam Workshop links, maximum player count, logging, server browser visibility, and telemetry. In BackupConfig.json, set the Backup interval and how many Backups to keep.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Or use Easy Mode

    Describe your server in your own words, for example, “public server with a Discord link, no telemetry.” The AI suggests suitable values and explains each change. Only changes you confirm are applied.

  5. 5

    Step 5

    Check and save the config

    Check the result in the live preview. Then copy or download the JSON file, or share your settings with a link.

  6. 6

    Step 6

    Upload and restart

    Upload the file to your RimWorld Together server's Configs folder, for example, using the file manager or FTP, and restart the server. RimWorld Together reads both files only at startup.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

File location, settings, Backups, port, restart, and Easy Mode—quick answers.

Both files are in your RimWorld Together server's Configs folder, at ./Configs/ServerConfig.json and ./Configs/BackupConfig.json. Upload the files from the generator there and replace the old ones.

Server name (up to 40 characters), description (up to 200 characters), Discord invite link, Steam Workshop collection link, maximum player count (1–500, default 100), log verbosity, chat logging in the server console, accepting local save data when players join (UseClientSave), listing in the public server browser, and anonymous telemetry.

These settings control BackupConfig.json: AutomaticBackups enables Backups, and IntervalHours sets the interval (1–168 hours, default 1). With AutomaticDeletion, the server automatically deletes old Backups and keeps the number specified by Amount (1–100, default 6). Without automatic deletion, all Backups are kept.

Disable listing in the public server browser (EnableServerBrowser). Your server will then no longer appear in the in-game server browser. This option is enabled by default.

The default ServerConfig.json specifies port 25555, IP 0.0.0.0, and UseUPnP false. The generator deliberately omits these three values from the form because network infrastructure manages them on a rented server.

No. The download gives you a ready-to-upload JSON file. RimWorld Together reads ServerConfig.json and BackupConfig.json only at startup, so you need to restart the server for your changes to take effect.

Describe the server you want in your own words, for example, “private co-op server for friends, log chat in the console.” The AI suggests suitable settings and explains each change separately. Apply suggestions individually or all at once; nothing changes without your confirmation.

The generator is free to use without signing up: the form, Easy Mode, import, copying, downloading, and sharing all work without an account. The JSON files are created directly in your browser. Only your description and current values are sent to the AI for Easy Mode suggestions.
