Why a password for Terraria servers?

There are many reasons for having a password-protected Terraria server. For example, you can control who has access to your server.

How do you set a password for a Terraria server?

Set password

1. connect to your Terraria server via FTP
2. navigate to the directory /terraria/tshock
3. open the file Config.json with a text editor
4. search for the line "ServerPassword": "" and enter your password there
   1. example: "ServerPassword": "Test123", your password is therefore: Test123 - make a note!
5. now save the changes and restart the server

Things to know

If you are SuperAdmin on your server, you do not need a server password to connect
