Finding the server
- In Enshrouded: Play → Join → open the server list tab.
- Search for your server name (Startup variables tab → Server name).
- Enter the password – done.
The first start takes longer because the server is being set up. Only then does it appear in the list. You can follow it in the Console.
Password rejected
The join password is in the Startup variables tab (Server password). The server writes it into enshrouded_server.json on every start – so only change it in the startup variables and restart afterwards.
Further passwords for other roles (e.g. admin or guest) are in enshrouded_server.json – see Enshrouded settings and admin password.
Version mismatch
After an Enshrouded update the game is often newer than the server. Restart the server – with Automatic updates on it downloads the new version on start.
Server full
How many may play at once is set under Max players in the startup variables (at most 16).
Stutters or connection drops
Big bases and many players need power – see Memory for Enshrouded. How much your server uses is shown in the history on the server page.
