What it does
Skips the gradual refill, for example after a wipe, a restart or a change to density settings. Ores, barrels and animals appear across the map at once.
The game's own description: Immediately fills all population spawners to their target density; useful after a wipe or server restart to skip the gradual ramp-up period

Run it on your server
Type it in the server console or send it over RCON; admins can also use the F1 console in game. To keep a setting, run server.writecfg after changing it, or put it on the launch line as +name value.
