Requirements

• Required

  • tmux
    • Used to run servers in detached sessions
  • steamcmd
    • Used to install 7 days to die game servers
    • Important, this MUST be in your PATH variable. This script calls the general installer script which configures steamcmd to be in /usr/local/bin. If this is not in your path, the deployed scripts will NOT work.

• Optional

  • pv
    • Used to show progress for backup operations

Automatic Installation

Must be ran as root or a user with access to sudo su

bash -c "$(curl https://gitlab.orion-technologies.io/game-servers/7-days-to-die/-/raw/Development/install.bash)"

Defaults

By default all servers start at an offset of 50000 + server id. For instance, if you were to start Server-1, the server id would be 1. As such the port Server-1 would run on is 50001, Server-2 would be 50002, and so on.

By default the base directory for all servers to be installed to is ~/7-Days-To-Die.

Usage
