Install
  • Install SteamCMD on your host.

Port
We basically use the two ports below.
UDP 27015 : Game query port
UDP 7777 : Game client port

Set the ports as an exception in the firewall.
Open these ports through Port-Forwarding.

If you would like to change the port you are using, the next step will explain how to change the port.

  1. In the installed folder, open "ServerSettings.ini" to edit as desired.
    Please change the default in each section to the desired value.
    for example :
    [ServerSettings]
    ServerName=MyServerName
    [SystemSettings]
    SaveName=MySave
    [GameSettings]
    Difficulty=Legend
    NoTeamKill=True

  2. Run StartServer.bat
    a. (Optional) If you want, you can edit StartServer.bat to change which port you use.(for example : LF\Binaries\Win64\LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7779 -QueryPort=27016)

  3. Save file location : \LF\Saved\SaveGames
    You can save and load the save file by matching SaveName (in [SystemSettings]) and the save in the above location.
