The server runs utilizing the .NET 7.0 libraries, therefore you will need to have those said dependencies installed in your server machine. For quick access, you can download them from here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/7.0

Thanks to the way the server is built, there aren't any heavy hardware related dependencies, meaning that your hosting machine will only need to have an excellent network bandwith and a bit of everything else. Really, I'm sure modern e-toasters could run it.

First, navigate towards the download section of this page and download the desired server version. We will always suggest the latest one as it usually comes with all the new bleeding edge features that old ones don't have: https://github.com/Nova-Atomic/Rimworld-Together/releases/latest

Then, place the server files somewhere where the server will be able to operate freely without any system/antivirus intervention (This is specially needed for linux users).

Execute the server once and close it again, all the needed files for configuration will have been generated. If they haven't, double check the server permissions are correctly set.

This is a really straight forward topic, really. The server will generate all the configurable files on first launch and will store them in the "CORE" folder.

Please check every one of the files that has been generated as all of them have important parameters for server functionality.

On first launch, the server will also generate the "MODS" folder, inside of it will be another 3 folders, where different mods will go depending on how you want to enforce them.

• Forbidden mods will kick the connecting player if its running them.
• Optional mods will allow a player to join even if it has them running or not.
• Required mods will kick the connecting player if its missing them.

To enable the use of DLCs in the server (Or even the core game), fetch the zip file called "DLCs" from this repository and treat them as a folder of a normal mod and place them wherever you please in the mod folders.

The server, by default, uses the 25555 port through TCP protocol, you can change the port as you wish but remember that other than TCP it won't work. You can use VPN programs to go around the issue of port forwarding the same way you would do it with any other game.

To install mods, directly dump the mod folder (The one with the numbers in the title if grabing from Steam) inside whichever folder you choose.

Please don't hesitate to create and issue on Github if you have any question/issue with the server. We are here for you!
