Private game server

ISEKAISQUAD

A game server the squad runs on its own hardware, for the squad only. Whatever we're playing this month is below, along with how to get on it.

Straight from the panel. If it isn't here, it isn't on.

How to join

Five steps. Same five every time, whatever we're playing.

  1. Get on the network

    Everything here lives behind Tailscale, a free app that puts your computer on our private network. Install it, then ask an admin to send you an invite. It will not work until you've been invited.

    Keep Tailscale connected the whole time you're playing. If you close it, you drop off the server.

    Download Tailscale

  2. Get the game

    You need to own the game we're playing. Buy it, install it, launch it once so it finishes setting itself up. Nothing below works until that's done.

  3. Match the setup

    If a server below lists a modpack, you need the exact same pack at the exact same version. Not close. The same. A mismatch is the single most common reason someone can't connect.

  4. Connect

    Copy the address for the server you want and paste it into the game's "add server" or "join by IP" box.

  5. If it doesn't work

    Three things, in this order. It's almost always one of them.

    1. Is Tailscale connected? Open it and check it says connected, not just installed.
    2. Does your version match? Same pack, same version number, character for character.
    3. Did the address paste cleanly? No spaces, no missing digits, no extra colon.

    Still stuck? Ask in Discord and say which of the three you already checked.

House rules

  • Don't grief the base

    Someone spent four hours on that. Borrowing is fine. Arson is not.

  • Say something before you change a gamerule

    Flipping keepInventory at 2am without telling anyone is a personality choice.

  • If it's down, it's probably the laptop

    Not you. Not your internet. The laptop. Give it a minute and try again.
