EVERYTHING YOU NEED

A caves shard effectively doubles the world your server simulates, so memory headroom and fast NVMe saves matter here more than raw core count.

Two Shard Headroom

The Forest and the Caves run as separate shards, and DDR5 ECC memory with NVMe storage keeps both responsive during a deep cave dive.

ABOUT DON'T STARVE TOGETHER HOSTING

How The Caves Shard Works

Don't Starve Together splits a world into shards. The master shard hosts the Forest, and the caves run as a second shard that joins the same cluster, sharing your cluster.ini and your Klei cluster token. Both shards live on your server, each using one of your allocations, which is why unmetered ports with 10 available by default matters more here than in most games.

Because the caves simulate a world of their own, plan for more memory than a surface-only server would use. A 3 GB plan covers a small Forest-only camp, while 6 GB gives a caves-enabled cluster with a mod list room to breathe through a full year of seasons.

Adding Workshop Mods And World Presets

Mods are installed by listing their Workshop ids in dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua and enabling them per shard in modoverrides.lua. Both files open in the panel file manager, so you can turn on global positions or a character mod without touching a local install. World presets and worldgenoverride.lua work the same way, letting you set resource density, season length and cave regeneration before you generate.

Backups, Rollbacks And Regeneration

Automatic daily backups keep 10 rolling slots of your cluster, which covers the evening a boss fight goes badly and the in-game rollback does not reach far enough. Download a save from the panel before regenerating a world, and keep the old folder if you plan to return to it. The task scheduler can also restart the cluster overnight so marathon sessions stay smooth.

DON'T STARVE TOGETHER HOSTING FAQ

Common questions about running a Don't Starve Together server with us.

Caves are supported as a second shard inside the same cluster, not as a separate purchase. Your server runs the master Forest shard and the caves shard together, each on one of the 10 allocations included by default, sharing one cluster.ini and one Klei cluster token. Enable it in the panel and generate the cave world whenever you are ready.
