How To Change the Bot Scaling Cap on Your Insurgency Sandstorm Server

Note:

Before editing, make sure your server is offline so your changes aren’t overwritten. If your Game.ini is empty, you must include the Section Header (the text in brackets) for the commands to work. If the header already exists in your file, add the command directly underneath it instead of duplicating the header.

1. Log In to Your Panel

---

2. Stop Your Server

---

3. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

---

4. Open the ‘Game.ini’ file

Navigate to:

Insurgency/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/

---

5. Edit the ‘Game.ini’ File

Configuration Element	Exact Code	Notes
Header Section	[/Script/Insurgency.INSCoopMode]	Ensure this is at the top of the block. Use this specific header for Co-op AI settings.
Command Line (Low Cap)	MaxPlayersToScaleEnemyCount=4	Place directly under the header. The game will only spawn enough bots to challenge a 4-player team, making the game easier for larger lobbies.
Command Line (Standard)	MaxPlayersToScaleEnemyCount=8	Place directly under the header. Allows the game to scale bot difficulty up to a standard 8-player squad.
Command Line (High Cap)	MaxPlayersToScaleEnemyCount=12	Place directly under the header. Allows the AI to continue multiplying to challenge massive 12+ player community servers.

6. Save the Changes

7. Restart Your Server
