Hosting a The Front Server
The following section covers the first-time setup we would suggest The Front server owners follow to get started with their server!
Server Name
Your server's name is the only form of identification for your server in The Front dedicated server list. As there is no way to connect via IP you are required to find your server using its name.
Admins
Admin players are granted additional permissions allowing users to use in-game commands whilst connecting to a server.
Setting up a Wipe Timer
As wipes are a key component of gameplay on The Front it's important to set up a wipe timer that lets players know when the server will wipe, resetting player & map data at a specific schedule.
Gamemode
An important decision for hosting your server would be to decide whether it's PvP or PvE.
Joining your server
Once the first-time setup is complete, the final step for you would be to connect to your server!
