Adjusting View Distance and Max Players

You can control how far players can see (view distance) and how many people can join at once (max players) by editing your server.properties file. These settings are easy to change through the File Manager in your panel. ✔️


⛏️ Step 1: Open the File Manager

  • ➡️ Log into your panel and select your server
  • ➡️ Click File Manager in the sidebar or dashboard

⛏️ Step 2: Open the server.properties File

  • ➡️ In the root directory, find server.properties
  • ➡️ Click it to open the file editor

⛏️ Step 3: Adjust View Distance

Find the line that looks like:

view-distance=10

This controls how many chunks are loaded around each player.

  • ✔️ Lower values (e.g. 6–8) = better performance
  • ✔️ Higher values (e.g. 10–16) = better visibility but uses more RAM/CPU

⛏️ Step 4: Adjust Max Players

Find this line:

max-players=20

This limits how many players can be online at the same time.

  • ➡️ Change it to your preferred value (e.g. max-players=10)

⏰ Step 5: Save and Restart the Server

  • ➡️ Click Save in the file editor
  • ➡️ Go to Console and click Restart

✔️ Your updated settings will take effect after restart.


❗ Tips for Performance

  • ✔️ If your server is lagging, try reducing view-distance
  • ✔️ Setting max-players too high can cause lag if your plan doesn't support it
  • ✔️ Most servers perform well with a view distance of 8–10

If you're unsure what settings are best for your plan, feel free to contact support for recommendations. ✅
