Upon creating my server the person from support set it to PVE because i couldnt respawn since there was a 30m respawn timer. now that me and my friends have been playing we noticed that some things that have nothing to do with player vs player combat are not able to be done with PVE on. now i saw the setting in the console to change PVE to PVP but i did not see a setting to get rid of the 30m respawn timer that is ON by default when playing on PVP.
#How do i set ark PVE server to PVP without 30m respawn timer

Start with a new save.

Start with a new save.
that wont work because i have my current saved world from a solo server into an actual server to play with friends
but because its PVE there aer some things we cant do such as pick up wild dino's with a megalosaurus or kill juveniles that we dont want
so im asking/looking for a way that i can set the server to PVP without having a 30m respawn timer

Found this on Steam, edit your Game Settings by adding these lines:
bIncreasePvPRespawnInterval=False
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalCheckPeriod=30
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalMultiplier=1
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalBaseAmount=0
May have to edit these settings to better fit your needs.

would these change progression?
im scared if i changed things in the console current dino's or buldings would despawn

I don’t see anything in regards to it modifying progression…

okay

But I would read more on these settings as it does modify the Game.ini file.
and that would mean?
I cant even find these settings in the console:
Setting: bDisableFriendlyFire=False
Setting: bPvEDisableFriendlyFire=False
bIncreasePvPRespawnInterval=False
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalCheckPeriod=30
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalMultiplier=1
IncreasePvPRespawnIntervalBaseAmount=0

Most settings won’t show up in the knowledgebase.
You will need to use Arks resources or Google.
Some settings in Game.ini will cause issues with players progress. I’m not sure on the PvP settings, but resources are there.

half of the settings dont show in the console so idk how im even able to change it

Unreal INI edits historically don't always show parameters that are usable but are driven by forever-default or in-game changes.
Adding them to an INI can cause something to happen on the next launch
