Dead Matter How to Run Basic Server
Port Forwarding
The ports you want to have open are:
UDP 27016 – Steam server query
UDP/TCP 7777 – Dead Matter 1
UDP/TCP 7778 – Dead Matter 2
Common Issues
Currently because of a bug, you need to log right into a Steam purchaser that owns a replica of Dead Matter as a minimum as soon as in an effort to begin the devoted server. You can log off after logging into the purchaser as soon as. It isn’t always showed if you could restart the gadget after logging out and reboot the server while not having to log lower back right into a purchaser.
Server Config
The server configuration may be modified through enhancing the config .ini documents positioned in [ServerInstallDirectory]/deadmatter/Saved/Config/WindowsServer. The document, section, and variable to extrade relies upon at the variable being modified.
If now no longer in any other case specified, the document to adjust is Game.ini.
Steam Query Port
You need to open a UDP port for Steam Query (default is 27016). You can configure the server to apply one-of-a-kind Steam Query ports through Game.ini and Engine.ini see the instance documents on this repo.
Example
If we’re editing Game.ini,
[/Script/DeadMatter.SurvivalBaseGameState]
ServerName=My Server
The above snippet will motive the server call to be displayed as “My Server”.
