To connect, CryoFall uses only a single port – the Game Port of your server. There is no separate Query Port. Inside the game two paths lead onto your server: the public server list (Community servers list) or an entry by address (Custom servers list).
Find connection details
Join via the Custom servers list
This is the most reliable way – it works even when your server is not listed publicly.
-
Start CryoFall
Launch CryoFall and wait for the main menu to load. -
Open the server list
Select SERVERS in the main menu. -
Switch to the Custom servers list
Open the Custom servers list section. This is where you add servers manually. -
Add the server address
Enter the IP address and the Game Port of your server, separated by a colon:123.45.67.89:6000 -
Join the server
Confirm your input. Your server then stays in this list permanently and you can join it from there.
Join via the Community servers list
Your server only shows up in the public server list if it is registered as a public server.
-
Enable the server list
In the dashboard of your server, set the Server List option to enabled and restart the server. -
Search for the server
Select SERVERS in the main menu and then Community servers list. Search for the name of your server there. -
Join the server
Select your server from the list to join it.
Join via the server GUID
Instead of the IP address you can also give your players the GUID of your server. It is assigned by the master server on the first start and stays the same even if the IP address changes.
-
Connect via SFTP
Connect to your server via SFTP. -
Open the configuration
Open the following file:/Data/SettingsServer.xml -
Read out the GUID
Look for the following entry and copy its value:<server_public_guid></server_public_guid> -
Share the GUID
Your players enter the GUID in the game under SERVERS → Custom servers list – exactly like an address.
