Once you have your own Don’t Starve Together server, you can start configuring your settings. One of the settings is playstyle, available in five versions:
Survival – default playstyle in which players enter survival mode. In such a world, dead players become ghost characters, and if no player is revived, the world resets.
Wilderness – in this mode, players respawn in random places, and those who die return to the new character selection screen. There is no resurrection option here and the world does not reset.
Endless – a mode similar to Survival, but the world does not reset.
Lights Out – a version of the standard game that features an infinite night.
Relaxed – a relaxing version of the game in which players do not die from factors such as hunger, cold or darkness. Additionally, threats from the outside world are less and resurrection is an option.

1. Go to the control panel and select your Don’t Starve Together server.
