VEIN servers can enable permadeath to create a high-stakes environment on their servers. With permadeath enabled, VEIN becomes similar to other games in the genre such as Project Zomboid, forcing players to create a new character on death. This can help to encourage less risky behavior on a server, and also allow players to explore a wide variety of starting occupations. This setting also raises stakes on roleplay servers, making each character more meaningful. Permadeath is just one of many console variables that allow server owners to customize the difficulty of their servers.
1. Log in to the BisectHosting Starbase panel.
2. Stop the server.
3. Select the Settings tab and choose Console Variables.
4. Change the Permadeath setting to Enabled.
5. Optionally, Block Player Saves can be enabled to prevent players from saving.
6. Start the server.
