# Terraria | Enable Server Side Character on TShock

## What Server Side Characters Are?
  * Server Side Characters is a special mechanism designed for Terraria servers that forces players to start with fresh characters when they join. This means they lose all of their items. This is purely server-side, though, it will not affect their actual Singleplayer character. Server Side Characters are what you need if you wish to prevent people from bringing in items from other servers and/or singleplayer and force them to start from scratch.

## How to Enable it?
**1.** First, go to your [panel.skynode.pro](https://panel.skynode.pro/) and click view on your server

**2.** Go to your Files and Open the folder called **tshock**

**3.** Find the **sscconfig.json** and open it

**4.** You will have to change the false to true in **"Enabled": false,**

**All Done! You now enabled your Server Side Character in your Terraria tShock Server!**
