Multiplayer Mod Dedicated Servers (Headless) #42

Hey there,

I love The Planet Crafter and I plan on using the Multiplayer mod so that I can play with my friends.

I'm wondering, is it possible to run a headless client of the game with the Multiplayer mod installed so me and my friends can connect to the server without me having to be online 24/7, a bit like Rust/ARK/Minecraft/Satisfactory, etc?

If it's not currently possible, is this something planned in the project?

Thanks!

Hi.

It is currently not possible and is not planned. It would require duplicating almost the entire game's logic, which is a huge undertaking, especially for free.
