🔧 Dedicated server and single player setup
Dedicated server setup:


For a general guide on dedicated server setup, please see the following link:
GUIDE: Setup a Dedicated Server. (Information may be out of date)
https://steamcommunity.com/app/383120/discussions/6/1743355067080801452/


Please read below for scenario specific instructions:

The scenario may not load properly if you skip the below steps!
These steps are used when first setting up a server OR when updating the scenario on the server.
IMPORTANT STEPS:
  1. When transferring the scenario files to your server via FTP, set the transfer mode to "binary" in your FTP client to avoid various errors with custom models and effects.

  2. The scenario files can be found under SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\383120/2550354956
    (Default location)

  3. After copying the scenario files RENAME them to be something other than the default numerical Steam ID.

  4. Never change the scenario name in an existing save game. Use the same folder name for the scenario when updating the scenario.

  5. You cannot change the scenario used for existing save games. You must start a new save game if you want to use a different scenario.

  6. The scenario does not get automatically updated on your server. You must manually copy the scenario files over again from your PC to your server if you want to update the scenario. Before reporting any issue, triple check that you followed all steps and that the scenario build listed on the loading screen matches the one in the update notes on the workshop.



To set up Project Eden or Reforged Eden on a dedicated server see the Project Eden Configuration Guide here:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1703779262
The folder where Reforged Eden 1.8 is in is called 2550354956.
Clients connecting to your server do not need to be subscribed to the scenario. They will download all required files automatically.

Game settings:
It uses a similar game options file as the Default Survival game, optimized for single player or coop. If you are running this on a server it's recommended that you edit the gameoptions.yaml file as needed, or use EAH (Empyion Admin Helper) to configure your server.
I cannot offer assistance in this, as this is a file that you configure for your own needs.

Project Eden Admin Control:
Project Eden has an in-game admin control for additional scenario specific settings related to progression and missions here:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2274073572


Setup assistance:
If you are using a rented server host you will need to contact their support for assistance.
Project Eden and Reforged Eden may not be compatible with all server hosts.

I cannot offer individual assistance in setting up or configuring a server beyond what I have posted in the guide linked above.

Project Eden and Reforged Eden is more demanding on servers than the default game.

No it does not.
It runs fine as far as i can tell. The mod loads and everything. I am using Reforged Eden 1.5.5

The only issue I have is trying to use a previously used save file, new save files generate properly though

It does not work properly on Nitrado.
To test, use the item menu to give yourself a Golden Rule plasma rifle and try shooting it.

Oh yeah you're right. I can damage entities like enemies and drones but I cant damage structures of any kind. The Golden Rule fires properly and damages enemies properly but not strutures. Explosive charges also do not work

EDIT: Nvm, the base had a shield. All weapons work normally, even the Golden Rule

That's the first time I've heard of it working on nitrado.
Well, I can't guarantee that you won't have issues. But if it works then awesome.

Thanks :) Any other things i need to look out for that are known not to work on Nitrado?

Still working fine on Nitrado. The only thing that happens every now and then is a disconnect message appears for less then a second then goes away. I fixed this by increasing the player cap by +2 and never filling those slots.

It's possible Nitrado finally got it working.

Delete current save and cache. Reinstall server. Move over the Reforged Eden mod files and change none of the config files. Activate the Reforged Eden Scenario, start the game. Continue to not modify any files EXCEPT for the scenario config files.

If you look at your game log it will be trying to load the play area and fail every time, it is due to a config issue. I would recommend switching to g-portal since they are cheaper, faster, and have a not ♥♥♥♥ interface.

Re-read the first post. It lists the correct folder name.
Folder names are set by Steam, I have no control over it.

ok tyvm for the reply and making such and awesome mod. do you have a patreon btw?

The big issue I'm having with Nitrado is I am unable to keep the TimeoutBootingPfServer @2000. It keeps defaulting to 180 so It breaks the server handling warps to any system that hasn't generated playfields...you just keep warping in place.
