Soldat Server Setup Guide

soldat 2d-shooter setup multiplayer action 0 found this helpful
Available in: ESPAÑOL

This guide covers how to set up your Soldat dedicated server on Legion Hosting, configure server settings, and connect players. Soldat is a 2D side-view multiplayer action game featuring fast-paced combat with military weapons across multiple game modes. For admin commands, game mode configuration, and map management, see Soldat Admin and Commands Guide.

What is Soldat? Soldat is a unique 2D multiplayer shooter influenced by Liero, Worms, Quake, and Counter-Strike. It features 18 weapons, 60+ maps, and 7 game modes including Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and more.

1. First Start

  1. Log in to GPanel and select your Soldat server.
  2. Go to the Startup tab and configure the variables (see the table in Section 2).
  3. Set SRV_NAME to your desired server name.
  4. Set ADMIN_PASSWD to a secure admin password.
  5. Return to the Console tab and click Start.
  6. Wait for the console to display Done. The first launch generates the soldat.ini configuration file.
First start generates soldat.ini. The configuration file is created during the first launch. Start the server once, let it finish loading, then stop it if you need to make additional edits to soldat.ini.

2. GPanel Startup Variables

The following variables are available in the GPanel Startup tab.

Variable Default Description
SRV_NAME MySoldatServer The server name displayed in the server browser (max 100 characters).
SRV_PWD (empty) Password required to join the server. Leave empty for no password.
ADMIN_PASSWD (empty) Admin password for in-game server administration.
MAX_PLAYERS 10 Maximum number of players (1-20).

3. Server Configuration (soldat.ini)

The main server configuration file is:

soldat.ini

Open this file using the Files tab in GPanel or connect via SFTP. The file uses INI format with sections denoted by [SECTION_NAME].

Always stop your server before editing soldat.ini. The server reads this file on startup. Changes made while running will not take effect until the next restart.

Key Settings (NETWORK Section)

Setting Default Description
Port (auto) Server port. Managed by GPanel -- do not change.
Max_Players 10 Maximum number of connected players.
Game_Password (empty) Password required to join the server.
Admin_Password (empty) Password for admin access in-game.
Server_Name MySoldatServer The server name shown in the browser.
Do not change the Port value. The port is managed by GPanel and must match your allocated network settings. Changing it will prevent players from connecting.

4. How Players Connect

  1. Launch Soldat on Steam.
  2. Click Join Game from the main menu.
  3. Browse the server list to find your server by name, or click Enter IP for direct connect.
  4. For direct connect, enter the server IP and port from GPanel's Network tab.
  5. If the server has a password, enter it when prompted.
Ports are randomly assigned unless you have a private IP. Check the Network tab in GPanel for your server's actual IP and port. See How to Find Your Server IP and Port for details.

5. Game Modes

Soldat supports the following game modes, configurable in soldat.ini:

Mode Description
Deathmatch Free-for-all combat. Highest kill count wins.
Team Deathmatch Team-based kill competition.
Capture the Flag Capture the enemy team's flag and return it to your base.
Rambomatch A special bow spawns on the map. The player who picks it up becomes Rambo.
Pointmatch Score-based mode with flags on the map.
Infiltration One team must retrieve an object and return it to their base.
Hold the Flag Hold onto the flag as long as possible to score points.
