Here you'll learn how to connect to your Myth of Empires server and change the most important settings.
Connecting
- Start the server on the server page with Start.
- Wait until the status shows “running”. You can follow the progress in the Console tab.
- In the game, connect via the multiplayer menu or direct connect using the address (IP:Port) at the top of your server page.
Important settings
- Server name (
SERVER_NAME) – the displayed name. - Max. players (
MAX_PLAYERS) – how many players can join. - Enable PvP (
PVP) – 1 = on, 0 = off. - Map (
MAP_NAME) – the map on start. - Admin IDs (
ADMIN_IDS) – Steam IDs of the admins. - Additional parameters (
EXTRA_FLAGS) – further startup parameters, each starting with “-”.
Changes to the Startup variables take effect on the next restart.
Good to know
- The RCON password (
RCON_PASSWORD) is generated automatically by the portal during setup. It is shown once at the top of the server page – please make a note of it. You can change it in the Startup variables tab. - On first start, the server downloads the game files. This can take a few minutes – please don't interrupt it.
