Customizing the crafting settings on your Conan Exiles server allows you to control how players gather, process, and create items throughout their survival adventure. Whether you want to speed up crafting times, reduce resource requirements, make crafting more challenging, or provide a more relaxed gameplay experience, adjusting these settings gives you greater flexibility in managing your server's progression and overall gameplay balance. Conan Exiles offers several configuration options that influence different aspects of the crafting system. These settings allow you to modify crafting speeds, production rates, and resource consumption, depending on the specific options supported by the game. For example, increasing crafting speed can reduce the amount of time players spend waiting for items to finish production, while adjusting crafting costs can make it easier or more difficult to obtain equipment, weapons, building materials, and other essential resources. These configurations can be particularly useful for server owners who want to accommodate different playstyles and community preferences. PvE servers may benefit from faster crafting and reduced resource requirements to encourage building and exploration, while PvP servers may prefer more balanced crafting settings to maintain progression and prevent players from acquiring powerful equipment too quickly. By fine-tuning these options, you can create a crafting experience that complements your server's intended difficulty and gameplay style. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of configuring the crafting settings on your Conan Exiles server using the server configuration files. We will cover how to locate the relevant configuration options, understand their purpose, and modify their values to achieve your preferred crafting experience. Whether you want to accelerate item production, adjust crafting requirements, or customize other available crafting-related settings, following these instructions will help you tailor the system to your community's needs. Before making any changes, we recommend stopping your server and creating a backup of your existing configuration files. This helps prevent your changes from being overwritten and allows you to restore your previous configuration if you encounter any unexpected issues. Once your adjustments are complete, save the configuration file and start your server again to apply the updated settings.
