Scrubberinos Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Exactly what the title says. Also, how do I make someone an admin on that server? Sorry, all the guides I read have been confusing and I am also unable to find the settings.ini folder in the Don't Starve Together file. Anyone can give me a simple guide to making a server? Much appreciated. Cheers! Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/85011-how-do-i-create-a-dedicated-server/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulk Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Do you want the dedicate server so your friends can still play while you are not on? Or only for you?

Soulk Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Yeah i mean the point of dedicated servers is to allow the server to keep running even if the host is not playing, if its only to you, its better to host a world and play it.

So you must not turn off your computer, i am testing the dedicated server guide that freya provided to you, wait a moment Ok its working and its wonderfull. Have you tried running the script as administrator? Also how did you created the script in the first place? Also you did it in the correct direction?
