You find your Midnight Ghost Hunt server in the server list inside the game. It appears there under the server name configured for it – in the region that is set for your server. Both are passed to the server on startup, so you should note them down beforehand.
Find connection details
A Midnight Ghost Hunt server uses several ports that are assigned automatically when your server is created:
| Port | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Game Port | The actual connection to the server runs through this port. |
| Query Port | Your server answers server queries through this port so it appears in the in-game list. |
| Beacon Port | Additional port through which your server delivers the menu and join information to the players. |
