Force gamemode automatically assigns your server's default gamemode to all joining players and prevents unauthorized gamemode changes. This feature is particularly valuable for maintaining fair play on survival servers by stopping players from switching to creative mode to cheat.
Follow these steps to enforce gamemode consistency on your Minecraft server.
Enforcing Gamemode
- Log into your GhostCap panel and stop your Minecraft server
- Navigate to the Files section
- Open the
server.properties
file and locateforce-gamemode=
- Change the value to
true
and save the file - Start your server to activate gamemode enforcement
How This Works
When force gamemode is enabled, every player who joins your server will automatically be set to whatever gamemode you've specified in the gamemode=
setting. This ensures consistent gameplay experiences and prevents players from exploiting different gamemodes to gain unfair advantages.
Players will remain locked to this gamemode unless server operators manually change their status, making it an effective tool for maintaining server integrity and rules.
