# Generation

## <mark style="color:red;">Server Owner</mark>

The table below contains a list of **Map Generation Commands** available for <mark style="color:red;">**Server Owners**</mark>.

{% hint style="warning" %}
_**These commands are volatile!**_\
\
**Keep in mind**, GPORTAL will store any previously entered generation commands to the server config file, so if you would like to reset them to default, make sure to re-add the default values in the boot commands section.

\
For example, if you set`server.minriverdist = 30`, the server will remember that and apply it, even through wipes and resets. You must manually set it back to `600` (default) in the boot commands section, in order to get things back to normal.
