This guide covers how to add Steam Workshop maps, custom content, and mutators to your Mordhau dedicated server hosted with Legion Hosting. For initial server setup, GPanel configuration, and connection instructions, see Mordhau Server Setup Guide. For admin commands, see Mordhau Admin Setup and Commands.
Workshop/Mod Support
Mordhau supports Steam Workshop content, allowing you to add custom maps, mutators, and other community-created modifications to your server.
Adding Workshop Maps
- Find the mod you want on the Mordhau Steam Workshop.
- Copy the Workshop ID from the mod page URL. For example, if the URL is
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1234567890, the Workshop ID is1234567890. - Stop your server.
- Open
Game.inivia the GPanel File Manager or SFTP. The file is located at:Mordhau/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini - Under
[/Script/Mordhau.MordhauGameMode], add the following:
ReplaceSpawnServerActorsOnMapLoad=/Game/Mordhau/Maps/WorkshopID.WorkshopID_CWorkshopIDwith the actual ID number. - For Steam Workshop auto-download, add Workshop IDs to the startup or Game.ini as required by the mod instructions.
- Start your server. The workshop content will be downloaded automatically.
Custom Maps in Rotation
Once a workshop map is installed, you can add it to your map rotation. Workshop maps use a longer path format. Check the mod page for the exact map path, which typically looks like:
MapRotation=/Game/Mordhau/Maps/MyCustomMap/FFA_MyCustomMap
Add the custom map path to the MapRotation line in Game.ini under the [/Script/Mordhau.MordhauGameMode] section, alongside your other maps:
MapRotation=Grad/FL_Grad,/Game/Mordhau/Maps/MyCustomMap/FFA_MyCustomMap,Camp/SKM_Camp
Mutators
Mutators modify gameplay rules (for example, restricting weapons or changing physics). To enable a mutator, add it under the appropriate Game.ini section as specified by the mutator's workshop page. The exact syntax varies by mutator.
