How do I change the map or gamemode?

Use the live console in the panel. The host command with a map name and gamemode starts a new game, and you can stop and re-host without touching any files. Uploaded maps appear in the list once you reload. None of this needs a support ticket or a different plan.

Can I install Mindustry mods on the server?

Mods work fine. Upload mod jar or zip files into the mods folder with the file manager or over SFTP, then restart the server from the console. Server-side mods load on their own; client-required mods need your players to install the same version. Unmetered NVMe storage means mod count is never billed.

Does the server support PvP with teams?

It does. Set the gamemode to PvP from the console and players are assigned to teams on maps built for it. Player slots are unlimited on our side, so lobby size is bounded only by the map and the CPU work its unit count creates. Attack and sandbox modes are handled the same way.

Will my server stay online when I log off?

That is the point of a dedicated server. Your Mindustry world keeps ticking, so waves, drills and unit factories continue while you are away. Uptime targets 99.9% monthly per the published SLA at /legal/sla, DDoS protection is included, and support is reachable 24/7 through the portal, Discord and email.

About Mindustry hosting

Hosting Mindustry Survival, Attack And PvP

Mindustry's headless server is a different experience from hosting inside the game. It keeps your map running while nobody is online, which matters on survival maps where a wave timer or a slow thorium build is part of the plan. From the panel console you can host a specific map, change the gamemode to survival, attack, PvP or sandbox, and promote admins without restarting the process.

Serpulo and Erekir maps both work, and moving between them is a console command rather than a reinstall. The task scheduler can restart the server between sessions, and automatic daily backups keep 10 rolling copies of your map and config folders on unmetered NVMe storage.

Custom Maps, Schematics And Mods

Custom content installs by upload. Drop msav map files into the maps folder and Java or JSON mods into the mods folder using the panel file manager or SFTP, then reload from the console. Unmetered NVMe storage means a large map rotation or a mod pack costs nothing extra, and the one-click version changer helps when a mod targets one specific Mindustry build.

Picking A Plan For Your Factory

Mindustry is light on memory next to 3D survival games, so the 2 GB plan at $5.00 with three cores already runs a friendly survival server. Step up to 3 GB if you host PvP nights or big community maps, and 6 GB if you keep several large maps loaded with mods and a steady stream of players joining. Every tier sits on the same Ryzen 9 hardware.

Mindustry hosting FAQ

Still unsure? Ask our team.

Mindustry is modest. The 2 GB plan at $5.00 a month with three cores handles a survival map and a small group. Choose 3 GB for PvP or attack lobbies with bigger unit counts, and 6 GB if you run large custom maps with mods. RAM is a flat $2.50 per GB if you outgrow a tier.
