Problem Description

Issue

Detailed Description:
I need to update my ARK: Survival Ascended server’s startup arguments, specifically to change the ServerAdminPassword. However, when I restart the server, AMP continues to launch with the old password in the startup command line (shown under Support and Updates → Last Arguments).

I cannot find where in AMP to edit or override these startup commands. Could you please provide guidance on how to properly update the server startup parameters (for example, changing ServerAdminPassword and other values) so they persist after restart?

Reproduction Steps

  • Opened the AMP panel and navigated to my ARK: Survival Ascended instance.
  • Checked configuration files (GameUserSettings.ini) and updated values.
  • Restarted the instance, but startup arguments still show the old ServerAdminPassword.

AMP controls the password, as it is needed for RCON

Search “Remote Admin Password” if you want to generate a new one. And enable “User-Defined Passwords” if you want to set your own
