On a server where the Steam app is not installed, you can download and run a custom server by using SteamCMD.

---

1) Create a folder dedicated to steam cmd
Example) C:\SteamCMD
2) Download the file
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD
3) Unzip to a dedicated folder and run SteamCMD

Installation Path Setting (Option)
Set the installation path with the "force_install_dir" command

Login Anonymously
Use the "login anonymous" command to log in anonymously.

Installing Dysterra Dedicated Server
You can install it by entering the "app_update [2214780] validate" command.

Go to Dysterra\WorldSettings\ under the folder where the custom server is installed.
Copy the Survival_Landscape_Template.json file and create a MyServer.json file.
For details on the world configuration file, refer to the World Settings Guide.

Move to the folder where the custom server is installed and create a batch file with the following contents.
For details on execution factors, refer to the [Custom server executor] below.

Close Steam first, and then run the above batch file.

First, go to the Steam website and create a login token for the server.
Create a batch file in the following format and run it. (No need to quit Steam)

In places where it is not easy to run the Steam app or SteamCMD, you can copy and run only the files of the custom server.

Go to the folder where the custom server is installed and copy the file. (Example: USB memory stick)
Copy the files to the PC that will run the server.

Create the same batch file as mentioned above in the appropriate folder and run it.

When the server is running, the server status is displayed in the console window as shown below.
Even if the log outputs, the actual server loading completion takes about 3 to 5 minutes.

---

1) Steam login
2) Run Dysterra
3) Click “Custom server” in the lobby

Available ports: 27015 ~ 27030
2) Configure port forwarding on the Internet router or switch.
3) Apply the changed port number in Dysterra RC.
4) If Custom server does not appear in the game with the above method, check the firewall.

1) When running multiple servers, you can use ports from 27015 ~ 27030. You can open both TCP and UDP. You can open one server per port.
2) If you set the game port number in Dysterra RC and click Start Server to start the server, the server start button will temporarily be disabled. After a while, if the button becomes active again, change the port number and press the server start button again.
3) If you click the Stop Server button, multiple servers will all shut down. Currently, there is no way to shut down a specific server in Dysterra RC, you have to use the task manager.

This is a workaround for those who run a dedicated server on the same computer/network as the game client. Please, use it only if other players already can see and join your server but you can't.

1. Installing Microsoft Loopback Adapter
2. Open Control Panel > Device Manager and select Network Adapters
3. Select menu Action > Add legacy hardware > Next
4. Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) > Next
5. Select Network Adapters in the list > Next
6. Select Microsoft in Manufacturer list
7. Select Microsoft KM-TEST Loopback Adapter in Model list > Next > Next > Finish
8. Close Device Manager window
9. Open Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections
10. You should see a new connection that uses Microsoft Loopback Adapter but cannot establish connection. Right click on that connection and select Properties
11. Double click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
12. Select Use the following IP address

NOTE: If it was already selected and you see some IPs entered then you opened a wrong connection. Get out of here by clicking Cancel in both windows. Enter in IP address field your external IP address (you can see it here for example https://www.myip.com/)

13. You can leave default Subnet mask
14. Click OK buttons in opened windows to save settings
