Deploying a server
Important : Enshrouded doesn't offer an official dedicated Linux server — a Windows host is required for this game. Installation is blocked on a Linux host.
Prerequisites : Have a Windows host with the Drooft Game Hosting service installed.
If you haven't already, please follow the installation guide for the Drooft Game Hosting service.

1
Go to the page adding game server and fill in: host (Windows), game (Enshrouded), server name, game port (default 15636, a second consecutive port 15637 is automatically reserved) and access type (password, friends, public).
2
Wait a few minutes for the server to switch to the "Game server turned off" , then configure the admin password and the maximum number of players at the bottom of the page.
3
Start your server (button "to start up") : all that's left is to play and invite your friends !
Important : Enshrouded doesn't offer RCON or a documented network API — online player counting is therefore not available on the site for this game, unlike others.
Tips:
Check that both server ports are open on the internet (UDP and TCP). You can test whether your ports are open directly from your game server's page, using the icon .
