Has anyone using Citadel Servers been able to run caves with one server?

[Craigosaurusflex]

Do I really need to pay for a second dedicated server just to have caves?

Caves/Server.ini

	[NETWORK]
server_port = 12553
[SHARD]
is_master = false
name = Caves
cluster_key = thisshouldmatchallshardservers
	[STEAM]
master_server_port = 12553
authentication_port = 11408
	

Overworld server.ini

	[NETWORK]
server_port = 12553
	[SHARD]
is_master = true
	
[STEAM]
master_server_port = 12553
authentication_port = 12554
	Server Type = Master
	[/spoiler]

Then my cluster has 12553 as the shard master port

I would like to know if this is possible too. I don't have a server yet but I was planning on going with Citadel.

In theory no, just have a look at their knowledge base at How To Set Up Your Don't Starve Together Caves Server for instance if you are a customer of their services.

Won't hurt if you open a support ticket and ask them directly since they should know better.

Hello,

The overworld and Caves are two seperate servers\processes, there is no way to run both at the same time on the same process and they relatively use the same amount of CPU\RAM\Resources per process so it would not be profitable for us to offer both as a business at our current rates for one. We do however offer 15% off the Caves server. If you use code: DSTC15OFF at checkout of the 2nd server.

 

I will highlight there are a few mods out there that do bring tilesets\features of caves onto the overworld, this may be a secondary option if you would prefer to have caves features but without another secondary\shard attached to your server:
