If your Mordhau server is not showing in the server browser, first check the Game Panel console for Session GameSession successfully created, which means the server is ready. Then search for your exact Server Name from Startup and clear any filters in the server browser. You can always join directly: press ~ in game and type open 203.0.113.10:7787 with the address from the panel.

How to fix a Mordhau server that isn’t listed

1

Check that the server is ready

Open the console. A ready server shows lines like IpNetDriver listening on port, Match State Changed from EnteringMap to WaitingToStart and, about 20 seconds after the start, Session GameSession successfully created. Wait for the last line before you look for the server.
2

Let a first start finish

The first start downloads and installs about 6 GB and creates the config files. Let it finish, then stop and start the server once more so your Server Name and passwords are applied.
3

Search for the right name

Search for the name in Server Name on Startup. If you changed the name in Game.ini, the panel replaced it at the next start; change it on Startup and restart.
4

Check your filters

If you use filters in Mordhau’s server browser, clear them and search again.
5

Join directly

Copy the address from the panel header or Overview. In Mordhau, press ~ and type open followed by the address, for example open 203.0.113.10:7787.

Why can players see my server but not join?

Frequently asked questions

Which address do players use to join?

The game address shown in the panel header and on Overview, made of your IP and game port, for example 203.0.113.10:7787. The Query Port and Beacon Port on Startup are used by the server itself; players don’t type them.

How long does it take for my server to appear?

Usually soon after Session GameSession successfully created shows in the console, about 20 seconds after the start once the server is installed. If it still doesn’t show after a few minutes, join directly with open.

My server worked yesterday. Why is it missing today?

Check that it is running and that the console shows the ready line. After a Mordhau update, restart the server so Auto Update installs the new version. See server not starting if it doesn’t come back.
