STEP1. Wait for Installation to Complete

Once you have completed your application and the service status becomes active, installation of the game server will begin. During installation, the screen will appear as shown in the image below, and most information will not be visible. This screen will complete in a few minutes.

 

When server installation is complete, an installation completion message will be sent from our game panel system to your email address.

STEP2. Confirm Game Port

You can confirm the game port in the server console of the game panel. In the image below, the port number is 26369. Clicking the area marked in red in the image will automatically copy it.

 

STEP3. Add Port Allocations

The 7 Days to Die game server requires 3 additional ports in addition to the game port. Go to the ‘Network’ tab in the game panel and click the ‘CREATE ALLOCATION’ button 3 times. As a result, 3 ports will be added as shown in the image below. ※There is a function to take notes on the role of each port to avoid confusion. In the image below, the role of each port is noted.※

 

3 Additional Ports

1: 26208 = Steam Query

2: 26212 = WEBDashboard

3: 26287 = Telnet

 

STEP4. Edit Configuration File

You need to enter the allocated port numbers into the configuration file. Open ‘serverconfig.xml’ in the game panel’s file browser. Location = /home/container/serverconfig.xml

STEP5. Configure Steam Query Port

On line 15 of the opened configuration file (property name=”ServerPort” value=”enter here”), enter the port number actually allocated in step 6.

STEP6. Configure WEB Dashboard Port

On line 29 of the opened configuration file, enter the port number actually allocated in step 6. Since the port number must be unique, please be careful to avoid duplication by, for example, entering a port number different from the one used for the Steam Query port.

The web dashboard is disabled by default (line 28). If you wish to use it, change the value from ‘false’ to ‘true’ as shown below.

 

Finally, click the ‘SAVE CONTENT’ button.

STEP7. Apply Settings

To apply these settings, you need to restart the server. Go to the ‘Console’ tab and click the ‘Restart’ button to perform the restart.

If you have any other questions, please submit a ticket.
