Altay
Running a server

Configuration

server.properties for the obvious knobs, pocketmine.yml for the rest.

Two files matter. server.properties holds the settings players notice, pocketmine.yml holds server internals. Both are read at startup, so restart after an edit.

Type

Leave xbox-auth on

With authentication off, anyone can connect claiming any gamertag. Player data, inventories and operator status go to whoever asks for them first.

pocketmine.yml

Server internals: memory limits, chunk sending and ticking, network settings, timings and command aliases. The defaults suit a small server, so change one thing at a time and watch what it does.

Altay inherits this file from PocketMine-MP, so upstream documentation and forum answers about pocketmine.yml apply unchanged.

Permissions

Operator status from the op command covers small servers. Anything more granular is a plugin's job. See Permissions.
