Setting up a Core Keeper server
Join your server
The first start downloads Core Keeper from Steam, so it takes a few minutes. Watch the Console tab. When it stops scrolling, your server is ready.
Players join with a Game ID. The console shows it. In the game, choose Join Game and paste it.
Keep the same Game ID
The ID changes every restart. To keep it, set your own in Game ID on the Startup tab. At least 28 letters and numbers, without Y, y, x, 0 or O.
World settings
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| World Name | The world name. |
| World Seed | 0 for random. |
| World Mode | 0 normal, 1 hard. |
| Max Players | Up to 100. |
Seed and mode only apply to new worlds.
Bring your own world
- On your PC, open
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Pugstorm\Core Keeper\Steam, then your ID, thenworlds. - Upload the file to
.config/unity3d/Pugstorm/Core Keeper/DedicatedServer/worldswith the server stopped. - Name it to match the World Index, like
0.world.gzip.
