Mindustry server not showing up or unable to connect

Use a Mindustry client with a compatible version and mod set. The server starts a map named by Map Name; if that map is unavailable, the process may be running without the intended hosted game.

If joining fails

Read Console for a version, mod or map error before changing the port. The installed launcher uses the server’s assigned memory allowance for Java, so arbitrary JVM values are not a solution to an incompatible client.

  1. Open Console and wait for the game or world to finish loading. Save the first error if startup stops.
  2. Use the joining method above with one client on the matching game version and required content.
  3. If entry is rejected, compare the exact error with the password, edition, map or authentication checks above. Keep the working save while testing.
