V Rising server guide

Change castle and clan settings on a V Rising server

Clan size is ClanSize (4 by default), castles per player is CastleLimit (2), and decay speed is CastleDecayRateModifier. Castle heart levels set how many floors and servants a castle can have. All are in ServerGameSettings.json, which HaruHost opens in the browser.

Clans

ClanSize sets the most players in a clan. The official DuoPvP preset uses 2.

Castles

  • CastleLimit (in CastleStatModifiers_Global): castles per player, 2 by default.
  • HeartLimits: floors and servants for each castle heart level, from 50 floors and 1 servant at level 1 to 550 floors and 8 servants at level 5.
  • TombLimit, VerminNestLimit and PrisonCellLimit: 12, 4 and 24 by default.
  • CastleMinimumDistanceInFloors: how close castles may be built to each other.

Decay

  • CastleDecayRateModifier: how fast a castle decays once its heart runs out of blood essence.
  • CastleBloodEssenceDrainModifier: how fast the heart uses blood essence.
  • CastleRelocationEnabled and CastleRelocationCooldown: moving a castle, and how often.

Questions

How do I stop castles decaying while my friends are away?

Lower CastleBloodEssenceDrainModifier so hearts last longer, or CastleDecayRateModifier so decay is slower. Keep the server running; HaruHost can restart it after a crash with an automation.
