I rent a Server on Gportal and want to try the new Map. We tested it in the night and there were 3 game modes Tribe Mode, Survival Mode and Warrior Mode. And when im in the Gportal settings i didnt find it. Is there a way to configure it?

TL;DR: Currently not possible

From their official FAQ:
5. Concerns from Discord Chieftains "SapphireSam7" and "Fartbox 🇦🇺":

"Can you provide a server configuration file for version 1.0? Are there new startup variables for version 1.0? Also, can the two new modes – Tribe Mode and Warrior Mode – be switched with the original Survival Mode on private servers?"

A: Regarding the server configuration file, you can still find the answers in the cross-map FAQ .

However, we regret to say that you may be disappointed regarding the mode question. We have discovered that Tribe Mode and Warrior Mode present significant and complex issues on private servers, particularly with different tech tree modules and certain mode-specific mechanics. The experience on private servers would be very problematic.

Therefore, we have temporarily disabled the mode-switching function. For now, game modes other than Survival Mode are only available for single-player and co-op modes.

Please rest assured, however – Tribe Mode and Warrior Mode will be made available to private server Chieftains in a future update. We will adjust their values and mechanics to allow private server owners greater freedom to customize and create their own custom modes.

Additionally, to maintain mode stability on official servers, they will all be set to Survival Mode by default. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.
