Players managing self-hosted Dune: Awakening servers are encountering confusion over adjusting base decay rates. Although Funcom’s official blog states that base decay is customizable, server hosts report the setting is missing from the .ini configuration files where other parameters like item deterioration and vehicle durability are found. This gap leaves private server operators uncertain how to tailor base maintenance and longevity, which affects gameplay balance and player retention. Community requests for clearer guidance highlight the need for improved documentation or updates to enable full customization.
