Over The Top: WWI Gameserverfrom 5.00€

Introduction​

Friendly fire determines whether players can damage their own teammates during gameplay. Adjusting these settings allows you to control how realistic or forgiving combat should be on your Over the Top WWI server.

Enabling friendly fire can increase realism and tactical gameplay, while disabling or reducing it can create a more casual and accessible experience.

Configuration​

Friendly fire 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:

EnableFriendlyMeleeFire = 1
EnableFriendlyRangeFire = 1
FriendlyFireAtRoundStart = 60
FriendlyFirePercent = 5
RangeFriendlyFirePercent = 5
ExplosionFf = 0
FriendlyFireReflectPercent = 0
  • EnableFriendlyMeleeFire enables or disables melee damage against teammates.
  • EnableFriendlyRangeFire enables or disables ranged damage against teammates.
  • FriendlyFireAtRoundStart defines a delay in seconds before friendly fire becomes active.
  • FriendlyFirePercent controls how much melee damage is applied to teammates
  • RangeFriendlyFirePercent controls how much ranged damage is applied to teammates
  • ExplosionFf enables or disables explosive damage to teammates
  • FriendlyFireReflectPercent reflects a percentage of damage back to the attacker instead of the teammate

After modifying the ServerConfiguration.ini, save the file and restart your server. The new friendly fire settings will be applied immediately.

Conclusion​

Congratulations! You have successfully configured the friendly fire settings on your Over the Top WWI server. Adjusting these values allows you to balance realism and gameplay experience for your community.
