Updates and the console

Updates on Restart, Saved Before It Stops

The server checks for a game update every time it starts, so a restart is all an update takes. When you stop it, it saves the world first. Kick and ban players or add admins from the console, and your admin and ban lists are kept between restarts.

  • A restart gets the latest update
  • The world is saved before the server stops

Project 5: Sightseer Server Hosting, Explained

What is Project 5: Sightseer?

New to Sightseer?

What is Project 5: Sightseer?

Project 5: Sightseer is a cooperative and competitive multiplayer sandbox with deep RPG elements, set in a vast, procedurally generated world. You start with nothing but a scanner and a mining laser, then venture out to find resources, build outposts, research new technologies and ultimately claim the world as your own. Drive, sail or fly vehicles you fit out yourself, from lasers and miniguns to plasma, missiles and railguns.

Explore.

Travel across dozens of scenic biomes and find resources, artifacts and discarded upgrades.

Build and Research.

Outposts extract resources and run research that unlocks new vehicles, parts and structures.

Always Online.

Your world stays up when you log off, so friends can join any time.

Public or Private.

List your server in the game, or keep it off the list for your own group.
