My game server allways sets back to difficulty easy

[lucid tide]

I tried, also used command but the server difficulty just keeps going back to easy

I need it on difficulty hard

[rose cloud]

Difficulty via the command only affects active runtime of the server (i.e from when you hit start -> until it stops; on Startup it goes back to whatever difficulty= is set to in the config) ~ To make sure it sticks, set it in the Server Properties! 🙂

You can see a guide on how to do this here: How to change the difficulty on a Minecraft server
