Question on MP server setting

[EMSpara]

I am trying to figure out what is the lowest hunger rate setting for my server. I am using the /worldconfig playerHungerSpeed [0-10]. Is 0 the lowest setting? I used is but my hunger is at 132% for some reason.

I believe for many of the world config settings to take effect, you need to restart the server, have you had a chance to try that yet?

Yes and it doesnt seem to change.. I will try it again and see what happens

Your hunger rate can go up by various means, such as:

• Holding a light source in your offhand
• Wearing armor (check the stats of the armor)
• Playing as a Blackguard
• It being very cold outside

None of these are a bug. All of them are intended gameplay.

As for the command not taking - keep in mind that the command simply takes whatever value you give it. It doesn't check if the value is valid, and if you give it something invalid, the next world load will fall back to the default. For example, if you include the square brackets in what you type ingame, that's an invalid value. They are present in the documentation to signify "insert your own value here". Additionally, I'm 95% sure that 0 is also an invalid value. Some core game mechanics, such as hunger, food spoiling, and so on, simply cannot be turned off. They can only be reduced to a certain minimum. Try 0.1, that will likely work.
