Here's how to connect to your Post Scriptum server and adjust the most important settings.
Connecting
- Open the server page in the client area and click Start.
- Wait until the status shows “running”. You can follow the progress in the Console tab.
- Copy the address (IP:Port) at the top of the server page.
- Launch Post Scriptum and connect via the server list or directly with the address. Alternatively add the IP with the query port (Ports tab) in Steam under View → Game servers → Favourites.
Important settings
In the Startup variables tab:
- RCON Password (
RCON_PASSWORD) – Password for RCON connections, leave empty to disable. - Server Name (
hostname) – The name that will be displayed in the server browser list. - Max Players (
maxplayers) – Sets the maximum number of players. - Allow Team Change (
allowteamchange) – Allow players to change teams (true/false). - Advertise Server (
advertise) – Display the server in the public server browser list (true/false). - Reserved Slots (
reservedslots) – The number of reserved slots. - Prevent team change (
team_change) – This will prevent players from changing teams when teams are not balanced (true/false).
Changes in the Startup variables tab take effect on the next restart.
Good to know
- Passwords such as
RCON_PASSWORDare generated automatically by the portal. They are shown once at the top of the server page – please note them down. - The first start takes longer because the server files are downloaded and set up.
