Obtain server details
You will require all the relevant information necessary to connect to your server. The information about your server can be found on the dashboard of your game server's web interface panel. Important information includes the following:
- IP address and port
- Server name
- Server password
Using the information mentioned above, you should be able to locate your server and ensure that you connect to the correct server.
Establish server connection
The connection to the server is established using the server IP address and Port. An optional password may also be required. To do this, open Servers in the main menu and click Add Servers in the bottom right of the server list. Enter the IP address and port of your server and assign a name or description. Then click on the newly added server to establish the connection. If a password is set for the server, you will be prompted to enter it during the connection process.
Potential issues and solutions
The connection to a game server can often be established in one or more ways. Available methods are described and explained in detail below.
Not visible
A lack of visibility of the server can occur if the initialization was not completed successfully. This may for example be due to a faulty configuration or corrupted files. Further information can usually be traced in the server console or log files.
