Here's how to connect to your Soldat server and adjust the most important settings.

Connecting

  1. Open the server page in the client area and click Start.
  2. Wait until the status shows “running”. You can follow the progress in the Console tab.
  3. Copy the address (IP:Port) at the top of the server page.
  4. Launch Soldat and connect via the server list or with the address.

Important settings

In the Startup variables tab:

  • Server name (SRV_NAME) – name in the server list.
  • Server password (SRV_PWD) – empty = open server.
  • Max. players (MAX_PLAYERS) – maximum number of players.
  • Admin password (ADMIN_PASSWD) – for remote administration.

Changes in the Startup variables tab take effect on the next restart.

Good to know

  • The portal generates the admin password automatically. It is shown once at the top of the server page – please note it down.
