How to Install Steam Workshop Mods on Your Squad Server<\/h2>\n

Enhancing your Squad server with Steam Workshop items allows you to host custom maps, specialized factions, and unique gameplay mods. Adding these to your GGServers instance is a straightforward process, requiring only the Workshop File IDs. Follow the steps below to configure your server to automatically download and update your favorite mods.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Access the GGServers Panel and Stop Your Server<\/h3>\n

Log in to the GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. Before adding new Workshop content, you must Stop<\/strong> your server. This ensures that the SteamCMD update process can run without interference to download the necessary mod files.<\/p>\n

Step 4: Enter Workshop Item IDs<\/h3>\n

Locate the box labeled Download Workshop Items<\/strong>. Here, you should enter the Workshop file IDs for the mods you wish to install. If you are installing multiple mods, separate the IDs with a comma (e.g., 1111111,2222222). Note that the panel saves automatically, but a Reinstall<\/strong> may be required via the dashboard to force the server to pull the new mod data for the first time.<\/p>\n
