Harvesting rates are an important part of managing the overall gameplay experience on your Conan Exiles server. These settings determine how many resources players can collect from gathering activities, such as chopping down trees, mining rocks, harvesting plants, and collecting other materials throughout the world. Adjusting these rates allows you to customize resource availability and create a gameplay environment that suits your community's preferences. Whether you want to make resource gathering faster and less time-consuming or maintain a more challenging survival experience by requiring players to spend additional time collecting materials, modifying the harvesting multipliers gives you greater control over your server's progression and economy. Increasing the harvesting rates allows players to collect more resources from each gathering action, making crafting, building, and equipment production easier. Conversely, lowering the rates makes resources harder to obtain, encouraging players to spend more time exploring, gathering, and managing their supplies. One of the most useful settings to customize is the Harvest Amount Multiplier, which controls the quantity of resources players receive whenever they harvest materials. By default, this setting is set to 1.0, meaning resources are gathered at the standard rate. Increasing it to 2.0, for example, doubles the amount of resources collected, while lowering it reduces the quantity players receive. You can also customize related resource settings, such as the Resource Respawn Speed Multiplier, to control how quickly harvested resources become available again. This is particularly useful for servers with larger player populations, where frequently visited gathering locations may become depleted quickly. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of adjusting the harvesting rates on your Conan Exiles server using its configuration settings. Whether you want to create a more relaxed gathering experience or introduce a more demanding survival environment, customizing these multipliers will help you tailor resource gathering to your preferred gameplay style. Before making any changes, we recommend stopping your server and creating a backup of your existing configuration files. This helps protect your current settings and allows you to restore them if necessary.
Adjusting Harvesting Multipliers
1. Log in to your Game Control Panel.
2. Before making any modifications, stop the server from running by clicking the Stop button.
3. Navigate to Configuration Files.
4. Under Configuration Files, locate the ServerSettings.ini file, then select the Text Editor to open the file.
5. Within the file, locate the Harvesting Multipliers, then adjust their respective values according to your preferred server configuration.
| Setting | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| ItemSpoilRateScale | Affects the length of time that foods will last before spoiling (smaller values mean items last longer before spoiling). |
|
| HarvestAmountMultiplier | Multiplies the amount of resources gathered when harvesting. |
|
| ResourceRespawnSpeedMultiplier | Multiplies the speed at which resources respawn after being harvested. (Works opposite of NPC respawn multiplier despite tooltip and manual description) |
|
| LandClaimRadiusMultiplier | This increases and decreases the radius at which land claim is applied. This affects the respawn of resources and NPCs as well as the ability of other players to claim nearby land. |
|
6. After editing, click the Save button to apply the changes.
