How to join your Hurtworld server

1
Launch Hurtworld.
2
Find your server by name in the server browser, or open the console with F1.
3
In the console, type connect 203.0.113.24 and press Enter.

Common problems

Hurtworld reads its settings at startup, so restart after changing the player cap, owner ID or creative mode.

The owner field takes your 17 digit SteamID64, not your Steam name. Find it by pasting your profile link at steamid.io.

After a game update, uMod has to match the new build. If plugins stop loading, upload the latest uMod for Hurtworld and restart.

Plan a wipe by stopping the server, taking a backup, then deleting the save so the next start begins a fresh world.

Server not responding

Make sure the server is online. Servers sleep after 4 days with nobody playing, and anyone with access can start them again from the dashboard in one click.

Use the server address

Do not use localhost, 127.0.0.1 or your own IP from a home hosting guide. Copy the exact address of the server.

No port forwarding or firewall changes

Opening ports on your router is only for hosting a server at home, so there is nothing to change to join this one. If Windows asks whether to let the game through the firewall, choose Allow.

Modding your Hurtworld server

Hurtworld servers are modded with uMod, formerly Oxide, which loads C# plugins from the uMod site. Upload the framework and plugins over SFTP and restart.

Hurtworld server hosting, explained

Hurtworld is Bankroll Studios' hardcore survival shooter, out of Early Access since December 2019. You spawn with nothing, scavenge, craft, build a base and claim land, then defend it from players who want what's inside. Temperature, weather and creatures keep pushing even after you have walls, so survival never becomes trivial. Servers are PvP sandboxes where clans fight over resources, raid each other and argue about it in chat.

Be honest with yourself about the player base: Hurtworld is a small community today and the developers have moved on from regular updates. That is exactly why your own server matters. A private server keeps the game alive for your clan or friends, with your own wipe schedule and rules, and no waiting for a public server that might be empty or gone.

Our panel covers the essentials: server name, max players up to 60, auto update, a Server Owner Guid field that makes your Steam ID the owner, and a Creative Mode switch that turns on free building. Everything past that comes from uMod, formerly Oxide, which still supports Hurtworld. Teleport commands, kits, bigger stack sizes, vehicle rules and admin maps are all plugins you upload through the file manager or SFTP.

Hurtworld is a Unity game and it isn't greedy. A private server for friends or a small clan runs well on 4 GB. A public server with a few plugins is comfortable on 6 GB. A busy server heading toward 60 players, with lots of bases, vehicles and plugins late in a wipe, should sit on 8 GB, and you can upgrade without starting the world over.

Common questions

How many players can join a Hurtworld server?

Our setup allows up to 60, set with Max Players in the panel. Hurtworld reads the cap at startup, so restart after changing it.

How do I connect to a Hurtworld server?

Find it by name in the server browser, or press F1 for the console and type connect followed by the server's IP and port.

How do I make myself admin?

Put your 17 digit SteamID64 in the Server Owner Guid setting and restart. You get owner rights when you join.

Does Hurtworld support plugins?

Yes, through uMod, formerly called Oxide. Upload the framework and plugins through the file manager or SFTP and restart the server.

What does Creative Mode do?

It turns on free building, so players can place structures without gathering resources. Most survival servers leave it off.

How do I wipe my Hurtworld server?

Stop the server, take a backup, delete the save files and start it again. The next start creates a fresh world.

Is Hurtworld still updated?

Not often. The game left Early Access in 2019 and still runs fine, but the community is small, which is why groups that still play tend to run their own server.

Do players need to own Hurtworld?

Yes, every player needs the game on Steam. The dedicated server is a free separate download that we install for you.

Is GamezServers affiliated with Hurtworld?

No. You rent and control your own dedicated Hurtworld server. GamezServers is not affiliated with the game's developer or publisher.

Can my friends and I split the cost?

Yes. At checkout choose "Me and my friends" and up to 10 people each pay their own share with their own card, on any plan length, from 3 days to a year. It is not a payment plan: nobody pays in parts over time, each friend simply pays their own share. You pay yours, send each friend their link, and the server starts straight away. Each share includes a $1 payment fee.

Can I build a custom plan?

Yes. Every game has a Build your own page: pick any amount of RAM up to 32 GB, any length from 3 days to 1 year, prepaid or a subscription, plus your server type and settings. A custom size costs 15% more per GB than the standard plans next to it.

Can I pay once instead of a subscription?

Yes. Pick Prepaid and pay once for 3 days, 30 days, 6 months or a year. Nothing renews: when the time is up the server pauses and keeps its world for 14 days. Add time or switch to a subscription from your panel any time. Short rentals cost more per day, since every server is set up from scratch.

How fast is setup, really?

Your server starts building the moment Stripe confirms payment. Most are online in under a minute, and the address and login appear on your dashboard automatically.
