[dedicated server] not showing up in list

[Beregor]

I have forwarded the 2 ports mentioned in readme but i cant
Find my server in list

Also what is system requirements for dedicated server on ubuntu?

I can now see my server in the server browser after doing the actions listed below.

1. Make sure you can connect to your server from within your network.
2. Server session must be persistent. Need Steam Login Token.
3. It's important when you run "export_server_config" because of mod setting.
4. Session search specifications are unfriendly. Advanced filter settings and server settings must be matched.

You need config at your ets2 home directory such as "~/.local/share/Euro Truck Simulator 2".

ETS2 client can connect with session search id.
It is expressed in the form of "85568392925767505/101".
That id can be used at convoy search box.

If you want to list your server, you have to get a Steam login token.
Please see readme. URL is https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers.
App ID is not that for dedicated server (1948160). Must be base game (227300).

Server settings are affected by the situation when exporting from the game.
If you export config with mod instaled, player must install these mods.
And if you export the settings in vanilla and enable the optional mod in the server settings, you will not be able to search from the server browser.
I recommend export with some small mods (like #TruckAtHome).

The default setting for convoy search is "mod enabled, no optional mods" (all mods, including mods with optional flags, must match the server).
If you use that settings, "MOD enabled, optional mod enabled" server cannot be found.
Check your search filter.

as u can see the steam connection is in the startup of the server not something i pick myself

You don't need to own the game and anonymous mode is enough.

There are possible reasons
- your session hidden because of filters
- you are still hidden behind NAT

well since the steam login is from the ets server start, were do i change wich account ets uses on steam?
the continous disconnects seem to be an idle disconnect from steam, so how do i change what steam user server login with?

By default, even if you launch server via steam client, server uses anonymous account.
If you want server to be linked to some account, you have to provide logon token. Token linked to account you used to create it.

My issue was fixed when I enabled a TCP & UDP port forwarding for the ports set in the config, default 27015 and 27016.

[Beregor]

oh i only had tcp open i will try open udp aswell

[Beregor]

So far so good seems like the udp port was missing, hope they will add that to readme that both TCP and UDP need to be forwarded
i will come back if the server disconnect again

disconnected after 1 hour approx
