Dedicated Server Tool Beta
Hello Shopkeepers!
We're incredibly excited to be bringing you the Saleblazers Dedicated Server Console (Beta)!
You can host persistent servers for your friends and even host or join public lobbies with player permission mechanics and additional player slots.
We are releasing this tool in beta because it is overwhelmingly the most highly requested feature for the game, and we want to get it into your hands as soon as possible. We're looking forward to seeing how you use it and improving it over time alongside the rest of Saleblazers.
Please be aware that just for this initial beta testing phase, we may have to temporarily disable the ability to join dedicated servers if there are any major instabilities with the system.
If you've been following along with the patch notes, you'll know that this has been a major effort for us over the past months, so we're so excited to release the first playable version of it today and see what you'll do with it.
From your Steam Library you can now access the Saleblazers Dedicated Server from the Tools section of your Steam Library or through installing it on SteamCMD.
You can read all about how to set up the Dedicated Server Console and see examples of how to use it in this Guide. (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3385724580)
This initial version of the tool is for Windows. If you want to host a dedicated server from Linux or Mac, you can use a virtual machine to do so.
Using this tool, you can host persistent servers for yourself or your friend group, which we know has been a major request since before we even released in Early Access.
We also built in various player permission settings to configure and some other fun options like randomized spawning, which can add a lot of variety to servers and enable better public servers.
As we improve these features for dedicated servers, we also plan on bringing them to traditional lobbies.
There are still some more features we're working on to improve dedicated servers, and there could be potential instabilities with the system, which is why this is still just the beta version of the tool.
But fortunately, that means you can also have a say in what the tool can do! We've opened up a new #dedicated-server-feedback-forum channel on our Discord to get feedback and suggestions about dedicated servers.
If you all like hosting servers and want to see more variety for public servers, we're hoping to continue developing customization features for servers, maybe even introducing more varied game modes to host.
Try hosting a server or joining one, and let us know what you think!
