FTL Tachyon Server Setup Guide


This guide covers how to set up your Tachyon (TachyonsCE) server on Legion Hosting, configure the server, and connect with friends. TachyonsCE is a community-developed multiplayer mod for FTL: Faster Than Light, enabling cooperative and competitive ship-to-ship combat with other players. For admin commands and server management, see FTL Tachyon Admin Commands.

Note: TachyonsCE requires all players to have the TachyonsCE client mod installed alongside a legitimate copy of FTL: Faster Than Light.

1. First Start

  1. Log in to GPanel and select your Tachyon server.
  2. Go to the Startup tab and check the VERSION variable (see Section 2).
  3. Return to the Console tab and click Start.
  4. Wait for [Server] SERVER STARTED. in the console, confirming successful startup.
Ports are randomly assigned unless you have a private IP. Check the Network tab in GPanel for your assigned port. See How to Find Your Server IP and Port.

2. GPanel Startup Variables

VariableDefaultDescription
VERSIONlatestServer version. Use latest or a specific GitHub release tag.

3. Server Configuration

The server uses a config file for port and settings:

File Location

config.cfg

The port (SERVER_PORT) is managed automatically by GPanel. Other settings in this file can be edited manually. Stop the server before making changes.

Key Settings

SettingDescription
SERVER_PORTServer port (managed by GPanel, do not change).
SERVER_NAMEDisplay name for the server.
MAX_PLAYERSMaximum concurrent players.
PASSWORDJoin password. Leave empty for public.

Example config.cfg

SERVER_PORT=25565
SERVER_NAME=My Legion Tachyon Server
MAX_PLAYERS=8
PASSWORD=

4. How to Connect

  1. Install the TachyonsCE client mod for FTL.
  2. Launch FTL with TachyonsCE enabled.
  3. Navigate to the multiplayer menu.
  4. Enter your server's IP address and port to connect.
Version matching: Ensure the client TachyonsCE version matches the server version. Mismatched versions will cause connection failures.

5. Java Runtime

TachyonsCE runs on Java 11. The server image includes the Java runtime automatically. The startup command allocates memory dynamically:

java -Xms128M -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=95.0 -jar TachyonsCEServer.jar

Memory allocation is handled by GPanel based on your server plan. No manual Java tuning is needed.
