Creating a Game Server

This is the final step where all previous configurations—Nodes, Allocations, and Eggs—come together to deploy a live game server for a user.


Prerequisites: Before you can create a server, you must have already configured the following:

  • At least one Location and one Node.
  • At least one IP Address and Port allocated to that Node.
  • The Egg for the game you wish to install.
  • A user account for the person who will own the server.

First, navigate to the Admin Area of your Pterodactyl panel.

  1. In the sidebar, go to Servers.
  2. Click the Create New button.
  3. Fill in the Server Name and an optional Server Description.
  4. Select the Server Owner from the dropdown (the user who will manage this server).
