Subscription cancellation can’t be reverted. Neither Stripe nor Paypal allow it. In this case you need to create a new subscription. We may move your data to the new server.

Subscription upgrades

Upgrade of a plan changes (increases) the quota and limits of your server. Note, it doesn’t wipe the old server’s data.

Data import error

The most common error when uploading a map is “Incorrect backup archive – no save_game” . This means the format of your archive is not correct. It is missing the folder ‘save_game’. Please read the instruction carefully and compare the content of your zip file. There are links to sample archives. If you still have a problem, upload it here: https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=%21AJmc4l1tLBtTYkY&id=DD769A432825265%21354033&cid=0DD769A432825265 and let us know at support@supercraft.host, so we can take a look and resolve it.

Lagging

Performance issues may be caused by several different factors. 1) your location being distant from the server location (make sure you picked the right region), 2) temporary issue with server being overloaded (we monitor and try to prevent it as much as we can), 3) #2 + your CPU priority based on your plan is relatively low comparing to other server processes. If the issue persist please contact us at support@supercraft.host providing all details like how many players, time, your server details etc.

Integrated map gen

The integrated map generator is compatible with A19 only. A20 has a different generator (and map format) and no external, automated tool like KingGen or Nitrogen exists as of now. If it any of such comes out, it will be integrated.

Gameplay

We focus on supporting our hosting service. For gameplay questions please use our Discord channel.

We accept payments in Stripe and Paypal. Note, it is a subscription model, you are being auto-charged. If you have issues and are not able to successfully pay, please contact us at support@supercraft.host. We can resolve it, but e.g. providing you a direct link to Paypal payment (to use outside of our web page). Note, we can’t change/replace your payment method in a subscription. If the payment method used is no longer valid, you need to create another one (cancel old, and move data using “Move Server” button on the cancelled subscription).

Change game files

You can change game files that are not contained in the “data” directory (core game distribution content). This includes e.g. save, map etc. You can do it by uploading a zip archive (mods or map/save) and potentially modifying the needed files prior to compressing and uploading. Settings of server-settings.xml and server-admin.xml are managed using “Configure” panel (as UI fields) . Also, if you have a need to change some particular file (e.g. set property’s value) please contact us: support@supercraft.host / Discord.

How this works

See: https://7d2d.net/how-it-works

Server won’t start

Server doesn’t start. There can be several reasons. 1) Please check the console logs if there errors. It may be e.g. a corrupted file or a mod that is incompatible, 2) Try to Kill the process and Restart. If still doesn’t work, contact us at support@supercraft.host. If you found errors: please attach them in your email.

Is ftp supported

We provide support for FTP in plans: L and XL. You can also change game files that are not contained in the “data” directory (core game distribution content). This includes e.g. save, map etc. You can do it by uploading a zip archive (mods or map/save) and potentially modifying the needed files prior to compressing and uploading.

Forgot password

In order to reset password go to: https://7d2d.net/password-reset. If the email is not coming (e.g. is in spam folder), please contact us at support@supercraft.host.

CPU

We always provide enough CPU power to run the plan and mods that are supported on the plan. However, if you install your own mods that are CPU hungry or set server settings far beyond defaults causing heavy CPU consumption you might be throttled if there is no free computing power – in that case, lower plans will be throttled first.

Cancel

In order to cancel your subscription (and hence recurring billing), log to the panel, find your server and click “Cancel” button.

Plans

For plans details and comparison visit: https://7d2d.net/compare-hosting-plans.

Corrupted player files

I you can’t log in (typically stuck at “creating player”) while other players can, you should go to MANAGE and use Fixer tool to either delete or restore player’s files.

Make myself admin

You can add admins in the “Configuration” section. Changes require a
restart to apply. You can also use console in the management section –
this doesn’t require restart, but is persisted. Command to add an
admin: “admin add your.steam.login 0”
