Engrams are permanent Crafting Recipes the player can unlock, and they provide a means of advancement & progression for players in ARK: Survival Evolved. Every time a player goes up a level, they will receive a certain number of engram points to purchase and unlock new engrams.
On a multiplayer server, no one player/character can learn all Engrams by default. This is done intentionally by the game developers to promote teamwork and cooperation. Players can spend their points on different items so that they jointly have access to more recipes (with some necessary duplication though, like for weapons and tools). One player might know how to make lots of specialized weapons and equipment, whereas another player might know the engrams for building components like walls and floors.
If you have a low player server, or want everyone to be able to unlock all Engrams, you'll need to increase the Engram points earned per level.
The process below covers how you would do this:
Important: As of June 2021, the maximum player level is 180. (Survivors start at level 1. 104 levels can be gained normally, 60 gained by defeating end-game bosses, 10 gained from collecting all Explorer Notes on every map, and 5 acquired by levelling up a Chibi, a cosmetic event pet.) This means that when you are creating the config code for increasing
- Stop your server.
- Click "Configuration Files"
- Click "Text-Editor" next to Game.ini
WARNING: You can no longer use the Configuration Editor in the future, you must use only the Text-Editor or it will wipe the config code we're adding in this process. - Add the following line:
OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=X
Replace the X with the amount of Engram points you want awarded for that level. It is in ascending order, from level 1 to the maximum level you have set on your server (if default, is 180)
Repeat this line for however many levels you have set on your server.
It will look something like this:

- Add the config code to the bottom of the Game.ini file - it MUST be below all other config options, also make sure there are no empty lines after it.
- Save the file in the top left and startup your server.
Engram points gained by performing this process will be applied retroactively, you won't have to restart your save.
