A Basic Guide on Dedicated Server Configuration for Custom Scenarios

Basic Info

I Made this Guide as many people have asked how to setup a server to run my Scenarios

Configuring Your Dedicated Server

Download and Copy the Scenario from the Workshop to your server’s Scenario Folder and rename the Workshop Numbered Folder to Anything ( you will select this in the dedicated.yaml file)

dedicated.yaml

All dedicated Servers Require a dedicated.yaml
below is a sample config 
ServerConfig:
 Srv_Port: 30000
 Srv_Name: 'Private Server'
 Srv_Public: true
 Srv_Password: 1234
 EACActive: true
 MaxAllowedSizeClass: 0
 AllowedBlueprints: All
 HeartbeatServer: 0
 TimeoutBootingPfServer: 180
 Tel_Port: 26604
 Srv_MaxPlayers: 10
 SaveDirectory: Saves
 Srv_StopPeriod: 24
 Srv_ReservePlayfields: 1
 Srv_Description: 'Hosted by '
 Tel_Enabled: true
 Tel_Pwd:
 KickPlayerWithPing: 1000
 LogFlags: 0
 HeartbeatClient: 0
 GameConfig:
 GameName: SaveGameName
 Mode: Survival
 Seed: 33564
 CustomScenario: Starscorcher_Universe
You need to Set the details to match your servers
Port Numbers, Passwords, etc
the GameName name needs to be Unique for every game you run as this is the save folder location
CustomScenario is the same of the scenario folder you set earlier when you copied the scenario to the server

Note: if you dont rename the workshop folder from the random numbers ie 23456787 it will cause a loading loop for the scenario and wont run corectly

gameoptions.yaml

Setting Game Options
eg. gameoptions.yaml

## the game takes the one from the scenario and stores it in the savegame folder, you can edit the file there, restart the server for changes to take effect
