# 01bb) Service Variables

### Service Variables

Typically, this is where you configure particular game server settings. There are more options for some eggs than others.

{% hint style="info" %}
This is also where you would need to change the Steam Query port for Steam-based (SteamCMD) servers, to the one you designated in "**Additional Allocation(s)**".
{% endhint %}

But for this Minecraft server, there are very few options in the setup panel itself.

You can change the:

* `Minecraft Version`
* `Server Jar File`
* `Download Path` if you want to download a different `server.jar`
* `Build Number` for PaperMC releases.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guides.engels.zip/using-pterodactyl/01-setting-up-a-game-server/01b-game-server-configuration/01bb-service-variables.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
