The following guide will show you how to connect and join your Enshrouded game server service.
Note: We suggest you stop your server prior to making these changes.
Firstly, access the Game Panel and navigate to your server.
Once there you will see your server's Query IP and server port.
e.g.
127.0.0.1:8211
You can copy this into your steam clients game servers to query it, currently there is no direct connect and this guide will be adjusted.
Copy this, then, for best practice, run the steam update to make sure your server is up to date.
Once this is complete, start the server via "Start".
Now that the server is up to date and started, open up the game client.
Click "Play"
Next, click the 3rd option which is to join an online server, your server will appear here.
The game will then show a list of random servers,
trying to find your server in the list without using the filter can take a very long time as there are 1000s of active servers.
This is why we use the server filter list on the side.
Once in the server list, you want to make sure your filter options are correct, make sure that you have the following ticked:
"Show dedicated server"
"Show dedicated server"
"Show password protected server"
"show empty server"
Also make sure:
min free slots = 0
Only friends servers = unticked
Then click on "Search for server name"
This will allow you to find your server in the list via it's server name that you have set.
In the Filter, you can type the whole server name or part of it, in this example we have typed "pizza". It will then attempt to find all servers with the term pizza in the name.
Note: This may take a few minutes to populate.
As you can see here, we found the server we were looking for.
Don't forget to click the Star, this will favorite your server so it appears as the first server in the list next time, making your life easier!
Click "Join" and you should then join your server successfully.
