How to Adjust Harvesting and Gathering Rate on Your ARK: Survival Evolved Server

Note:

To ensure your configuration changes are saved successfully without the live server engine overwriting them, go to your main Cybrancee dashboard and click Stop.
If the header already exists in your file, simply add the lines directly underneath it instead of duplicating the header

6. Understanding the Configuration

Setting Variable	Function	How to Use It
HarvestAmountMultiplier	The master multiplier for all gathered resources.	Increase (e.g., 3.0, 5.0) to give players more resources per swing.
PlayerHarvestingDamageMultiplier	How much damage a player’s tool deals to a resource node.	Keep at 1.0 unless you want players to break nodes faster.
DinoHarvestingDamageMultiplier	How much damage a dinosaur’s attack deals to a resource node.	Keep at 1.0 unless you want dinos to break nodes faster.
HarvestHealthMultiplier	The total “health” of a resource node (how many hits it takes to destroy a rock/tree).	Increase to make nodes last longer, allowing players to hit them more times.
ClampResourceHarvestDamage	Prevents servers from rewarding more resources than the node’s remaining health allows.	Set to False for high-rate servers to prevent resource capping.
