Over The Top: WWI Gameserverfrom 5.00€

Introduction​

Random map settings in Over the Top WWI allow you to dynamically generate maps with different terrain, vegetation, and environmental features. This can significantly increase replayability and create unique battlefields for each match.

By adjusting these values, you can control map size, terrain complexity, and the amount of objects such as forests, rocks, or buildings.

Configuration​

Random map settings are configured inside the server configuration file. You can access and edit this file in your gameserver management panel under Configs. Locate and open the ServerConfiguration.ini configuration file. Inside this file, find the following parameters:

RandomMapSizee = 450
RandomFields = 8.25
RandomCivBuildings = 0
RandomMilBuildings = 0
RandomForests = 8.5
RandomSingleTrees = 1.1
RandomBush = 5
RandomRocks = 1.1
RandomNoiseSetting = 0
RandomWaterHeight = 12.25
RandomMaxTerrainHeight = 26
RandomFrequency = 5
RandomLacunarity = 3
RandomPersistence = 32
RandomDesert = 0

  • RandomMapSizee defines the overall size of the generated map

  • RandomFields, RandomForests, RandomBush, RandomRocks control how many natural elements appear on the map

  • RandomCivBuildings and RandomMilBuildings define the number of civilian and military structures

  • RandomSingleTrees controls isolated tree placement

  • RandomNoiseSetting, RandomFrequency, RandomLacunarity, and RandomPersistence affect terrain generation and variation

  • RandomWaterHeight defines the water level

  • RandomMaxTerrainHeight controls elevation and terrain height

  • RandomDesert determines whether desert environments can appear

  • 0 → Disabled

  • 1 → Enabled

  • 2 → Random

Adjust these values to create different types of maps, from dense forests to open battlefields or varied terrain landscapes.

After modifying the ServerConfiguration.ini, save the file and restart your server. The new map settings will be applied when a random map is generated.

Conclusion​

Congratulations! You have successfully configured random map settings on your Over the Top WWI server. This allows you to create unique and dynamic battlefields, enhancing replayability and player experience.
