7 days to die progression.xml gets overwritten

OS Name/Version: CentOS 7 version 7.7.1908

Product Name/Version: AMP version v1.9.8.6, built 08/04/2020 16:33

Problem Description: I want to increase the skill points gained per level. Since there is no server configuration option in the AMP WebApp to do this, I edited the progression.xml file found in /saves/game world/game name/ConfigsDump/

However, when the server is started and finishes booting the setting is not honored and the file has been overwritten with the default values.

Steps to reproduce:

Edit the progression.xml file skill_points_per_level="1" value on line 6 to another number
Start server from the 7 days to die instance Status menu in the AMP WebApp
View the progression.xml file to see the value returned to 1

Actions taken to resolve so far: Edited the progression.xml with the file manager while the server is offline

Edited the progression.xml via vim locally on the server while the server is offline

Repeated above 2 while the server was online, then restarting the server

Ran a google search to see if this was an issue with the 7 days to die dedicated server itself, and not an AMP issue. It seems to work for others that do not use AMP.

If this is a file that AMP is fully controlling, I would like to request this option be exposed in the GUI please.

AMP does not write to or control this file. It only writes to serverconfig.xml
