Nexardo operates game servers on your machine: a VPS, dedicated server, or supported Linux node. You provide the compute resources; the dashboard sends commands to the agent and shows their results.
Before you begin
- An email address to register and verify your account.
- A Linux server with SSH access and administrator privileges (
sudo). - Enough memory and disk space for the game, version, and mods you choose.
- Access to your server's networking and firewall settings.
Register and verify your email
- Create an account on the registration page.
- Open the verification email and follow its link. Check spam if it is missing.
- Wait for application approval. Account settings show your access status.
Game resources may be unavailable until access is approved. Registering again does not replace application review.
Create an organization
An organization groups your team, worlds, and connected machines. Create one using the organization switcher in the header. Check the selected organization before enrolling a node.
Capabilities and limits depend on the organization and its plan. Check available actions in the interface; a missing control can also mean insufficient permissions.
Connect your infrastructure
Open Providers in settings and start the machine enrollment wizard. Install the agent and wait for node registration. Follow Connect a node for detailed instructions.
If the machine already hosts a game server, the wizard lets you review discovered games and paths. Keep an independent copy of the data before adopting an existing game.
Deploy your first game
Create a world in Worlds. It receives a Production environment. Add a service, select a game and connected machine, then wait for installation to finish and check game logs.
Continue with Your first game server. Read Worlds, environments, and services to understand the resource structure.
