I looked for a mapping section under zonemanager but could not find.

What do you mean, "true pve".  You can disable pvp by enabling the "pvpgod" flag

I need to add this to allow pvp in a zone using truepve

"Mappings": {
  "default": "default",
  "zoneId": "exclude" // exclude zone from TruePVE handling

can you explain exactly what to do here lol do i put the zone id# where it says zoneid the exclude in " what about the last part // exclude zone from TruePVE handling
keep that in there as well??

Truepve is a plugin

hi, yes just create a zone, after that you get a ZoneID for example 123456789 and this ID you type in the TruePVE mappings for example like this

  "Mappings": {
    "default": "default",
    "123456789": "exclude"

I figured it out needs to be done like this or the config resets to default

"Mappings": {
"90754158": "exclude",
"default": "default"
},
