Just get a VPS or a Dedi

#

Hetzner has some good options for those

ok thx

yes

#

my english is bad

mental kestrel
#

ok, you wanted 16gb of ram and 60gb ssd.

#

lets look at for example modernhosting prices who you can buy 1 unturned server from

#

first one with 16gb of ram

#

that is for 1 unturned server

#

Hetzner x86 vps

#

and on that you can host 1-4 unturned servers

#

now lets say we used pinehosting another unturned server host,
16Gb of ram, lets say 48 player slots so max 48 players on the server 41€/month for unturned server

#

ofc 18 player slots with 16Gb of ram would be 29€

#

maybe somebody else can suggest you something else

rustic cape
#

never mind i got it

#

that largely actually depends on things like plugins

#

vanilla can handle more people than you're likely to ever get at once so ultimately it comes down to what you're trying to run

#

12-16 depending on what maps you run

#

Bigger maps such as Russia or Arid need 4-5 GB of RAM instead of the 3 GB the smaller maps require

#

question is what your CPU use looks like currently

#

install something like htop and check in the cli

#

at least I don't know how to make regular top display per thread stats

mental kestrel
#

who doesn't have a hosted system monitoring setup to monitor everything with alers in 2024

nocturne heath
#

I just assume people don't

#

I actually haven't rebuilt my monitoring system for that

#

maybe I should

nocturne heath
#

that's not what we're looking for here at all

#

open the terminal

#

install htop

#

use htop

#

send what that looks like

#

preferably during peak hours

#

Yes.

#

looks like you should have plenty of free CPU to add some more servers, at least unless this is completely off-peak hours for you

#

unless you get CPU-limited during peak hours the only thing adding more servers will do is potentially increase how long it takes to restart the servers (if you're restarting all at the same time)

#

cpu usage changes largely based on how many players are on

mental kestrel
#

did you pay him?

#

eeh

#

in an ideal world you would host a server that gets youtubers instead of you going to them

#

but it is hard I get it

#

what type of servers you making

#

gl with that

#

just remember that having person stream on your server has good and bad sides

#

good it will get you players

#

but it is also possible that when the streamer/youtuber stops playing and moves on to another server you might lose those players

#

this is why I never asked streamers/youtubers to come play on my servers

#

they just came ofc this was between 2016-2020

#

we had 2rgames on one of the servers for a while streaming and it was full

#

about day later back to regular numbers

#

nah

#

couple

#

not many

#

didn't really matter back then

#

we were in the top 3-2 if I can say so my self

#

they were

#

after that me and my friend lost interest

#

we just didn't play unturned anymore

#

that much

#

we didn't exactly keep updating the servers

#

currently seeing if I can get couple managers to take over them but haven't had the time to teach them everything yet

#

it ain't that I haven't found people who are willing to do it and want to do it, it is just that they aren't exactly that experienced with this stuff

cosmic badger
#

I wouldve just slapped hetrix on it

cosmic badger
#

Hows the ram looking?

#

I think you could safely 2x the number of server if you wanted

#

Depends on the playercounts obviously
