Default ports

Each server receives one Single port automatically assigned. Check out the panel → Network for full address IP:PORT.

Firewall

Our infrastructure filters upstream DDoS attacks. You usually don't have to open additional ports on an external firewall, the port of the game is routed to your instance.

Connection problems

  • Check that the server is started (state running in console)
  • Control IP:PORT displayed in the panel (not your personal box's IP)
  • Make sure the modpack or client version matches the server
  • Check the console for bind or license errors (Steam, etc.)
