Dedicated Server

== Version 1.0 ==
StarForge official dedicated server support was released September 18, 2014.
=== Starting a Server ===
# Locate your StarForge game client usually located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\StarForge
# Click the StartServer.bat. A window will open that says the server was started.
# Make sure you are port forwarded properly. You can change the port in /Configuration/ServerSettings.cfg. (default: 7250) (Router Firewall Setup)
=== Force Stop of all Servers ===
# Locate your StarForge game client usually located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\StarForge
# Click the StopAllServers.bat
=== Stopping an Individual Server ===
# This is not available yet, however you may stop individual servers by ending the process in the Task Manager (CTRL + SHIFT + DEL).
=== Saving your Server ===
* The server saves every 5 minutes automatically.
=== Starting Multiple Servers ===
* This is not currently officially supported. It is, however, still possible but not in any way user-friendly.
* Tip: The ServerSettings.cfg has a port number. You can make copies of the game files.
=== Updating a Server ===
* After updating the game client on steam you can use the files located (usually) at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\StarForge
* Replace all the files from your build folder. (Except maybe the /Configuration folder)
=== Platforms ===
* Currently StarForge is only supported on Windows.
