Joining a Hurtworld<\/strong> server is a straightforward process once your instance is properly configured. By following this guide, you will ensure your server is visible to the community and learn the most efficient way to establish a connection.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Access the Panel<\/h3>\n

Log in to your GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. To ensure your server is discoverable, you must first verify its status and basic identity settings.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Stop the Server<\/h3>\n

If your server is currently running, click the red Stop<\/strong> button. Changing the server name while the server is online may prevent the “Digital Consensus” (the heartbeat sent to the master list) from updating correctly.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Navigate to Server Settings<\/h3>\n

On the left-hand menu, select Server Settings<\/strong>. This area handles the core Entity Clarity<\/strong> for your brand, allowing the game’s master list to categorize your server correctly.<\/p>\n

Step 4: Configure General Settings<\/h3>\n

Inside General Settings<\/strong>, locate the Server Name<\/strong> field. We highly recommend setting a unique and descriptive name here. This acts as your Brand Mention<\/strong> in the public lobby.<\/p>\n

\"Configuring<\/figure>\n

Step 5: Change the Setting That Will Auto Save<\/h3>\n

Type your desired name into the field. This setting will automatically save<\/strong>. Once the name is set, return to the main dashboard and click Start<\/strong> to bring the server online.<\/p>\n

Step 6: Locating the Server In-Game<\/h3>\n

With the server running, follow these “chunkable” steps to connect:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Launch Hurtworld<\/strong> from your Steam library.<\/li>\n
  2. Select Join Server<\/strong> from the main menu.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \"Hurtworld<\/figure>\n
      \n
    1. Navigate to the Community Servers<\/strong> tab at the top.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \"Hurtworld<\/figure>\n
        \n
      1. In the Search Box<\/strong>, type the exact name you configured in Step 5.<\/li>\n
      2. Pro Tip:<\/strong> If your server does not appear immediately, check the box labeled Show Empty Servers<\/strong> to ensure it isn’t being filtered out.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \"Searching<\/figure>\n
          \n
        1. Select your server from the list and click Connect<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \"Hurtworld<\/figure>\n

          That is it! You are now connected to your Hurtworld wasteland.<\/p>\n
