First time setup: How to Setup/Import and what files do we need when creating a SE server

[Lance Larkin 0]

I am new to the SE server admin role and I cant really find much how-to that I can use practically.

From what I discovered recently I can run/setup a space engineers dedicated server using the Steam tool.

Once I have all the game settings/mods setup and saved....

Then what?

Do I save and start the server, then import cfg files via FTP instances folders? what files and what folders?

I have tried so many different ways of doing this only to recently find this server tool but when I "save as" I only get 1 cfg and that doesn't have any mods/settings I can easily import.

Is there a how-to? Can I just run my dedicated servers steam tool and point it to my SurvivalServers.com IP?

 

All I wanted was a handful of mods,  airtightness and a password without experimental mode lol.

I believe we got you all squared away in a ticket, we do however have several sources for Space Engineers on our Wiki here incase you want to refer to them in the future!

If that is it, then you only need to edit Sandbox_config.sbc (save settings) at /Instance/Saves/NAMEOFWORLD/. For mods, see this:

 

Password is not recommended. Use the Steam Group option instead to limit users to your server.
