This Unturned server hosting guide lists every FREAKHOSTING help page for Unturned. Your server runs the Unturned dedicated server with RocketMod already installed. In the Game Panel, Game settings changes your server’s rules in plain words, with presets and a review before saving. One thing comes first: a Steam game server login token (GSLT), without which the server can’t start. New here? Start with getting started.

Most asked

  1. How to spawn vehicles: /v <id>, for example /v 33, plus every vehicle ID.
  2. Loot spawn rate and respawn time: Item spawn chance and Item respawn.
  3. Workshop mods and collections: File_IDs in WorkshopDownloadConfig.json.
  4. Plugins for Rocket and OpenMod: where to get them and how to install them.
  5. Unturned maps list: installed maps and curated map File IDs.
  6. Item IDs: /i <id> [amount] and common item IDs.
  7. Steam token (GSLT): App ID 304930, required to start.
  8. Become admin: Owner <SteamID64> in Commands.dat.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a Steam token for my Unturned server?

Yes. Our Unturned servers need a valid GSLT for App ID 304930. Without it the panel stays on Starting and nobody can join.

Is RocketMod installed?

Yes. RocketMod 4.9.3.18 is installed on every new server, so /v, /i and plugins work straight away.

Can I change Unturned settings without editing files?

Yes. Game settings covers the server, server list, safety limits, zombies, items, vehicles, players, gameplay rules and weather. For Owner, Cheats and PvE, edit Commands.dat with the link on the same page.

How do I back up my Unturned world?

Use Backups. Type save in the console first so the backup has the latest world.

Backups

Schedules
