Centralized Asset Management

Managing 50 individual mod IDs is prone to error. By using a Steam Workshop Collection, you can manage your server’s mods directly through the Steam interface. When you add a new item to your collection, the server will automatically detect the change and download it upon the next restart.

​
1. Setup (WorkshopDownloadConfig.json)

Instead of listing every Mod ID, you can simply list the ID of your Collection:
  1. Create a Collection on the Steam Workshop and note its ID.
  2. Navigate to: /Servers/Default/WorkshopDownloadConfig.json
  3. Add the ID to the File_IDs list: 
    {
  "File_IDs": [
    "YOUR_COLLECTION_ID"
  ]
}
  4. On startup, the server will query Steam and download every item currently in that collection.

​
2. Client-Side Convenience

Unlike other games, Unturned automatically prompts players to download any missing Workshop content required by the server map. By using a Collection, you ensure that the server always has the correct versions synced with what the players are being told to download.
