StarMade Server Hosting, Explained
New to StarMade?
What is StarMade?
StarMade is a voxel space sandbox by Schine. You build ships and stations block by block, with copy and paste, symmetry modes and shape tools, and fly them through a procedurally generated universe of galaxies, stars and planets. Mine asteroids, salvage stations, run factories, trade, and fight pirates and rival factions with weapons you combine yourself. Rails and logic gates add moving parts, from sliding doors to working clocks.
Build Anything.
Design ships, stations and bases block by block, then fly them.
Fight and Trade.
Take on pirates, form factions, and build an empire across the galaxy.
Why rent a server?
What is StarMade Server Hosting?
A StarMade dedicated server keeps your universe running around the clock, so your faction's stations and fleets are there whenever anyone logs in, and no one's PC has to carry the load. On a Physgun server you set the server name, player limit and game mode in the panel, change the universe's rules in the config editor, get the newest build each time the server starts, and have full file access over SFTP and SSH.
Always Online.
Your universe stays up when you log off, so your faction can play any time.
Full Control.
Set your rules and game mode, and reach every file over SFTP and SSH.
