How to Join Your Soldat 2 Server

Soldat 2 uses a single port for the connection – the Game Port. There is no separate Query Port. You can reach your server in two ways: through the in-game server list or through a direct connection using IP address and port.

Find connection details

Via the server list

1. Start Soldat 2
   Launch Soldat 2 on your PC.

2. Open the server list
   In the main menu, open the multiplayer section with the list of public servers.

3. Search for your server
   Look for the name of your server in the list. The name you set in the dashboard is exactly the name shown here.

4. Join
   Select your server and join it.

Connect directly via IP

A direct connection is the most reliable way onto your server and also works when it does not show up in the server list.

1. Start Soldat 2
   Launch Soldat 2 on your PC.

2. Open the direct connection
   Switch to the direct connection in the multiplayer section. Soldat 2 asks for the address and the port in separate fields.

3. Enter the address
   Enter the IP address of your server from the dashboard into the address field:

   123.45.67.89
   

4. Enter the port
   Enter the Game Port of your server into the port field – unchanged, exactly as shown in the dashboard.

5. Connect
   Confirm your input. You then drop straight into the running game.

Password protected server

If a game password is set for your server, you are asked for it when joining. The game password only controls who is allowed on the server at all – it has nothing to do with the RCON password used for admin rights. How to grant admin rights is explained under Add Admin.
