Many people have a question: "How do you create your own bundle of servers?". Let's figure it out!
This guide provides an example of installing a BungeeCord server on Minecraft version 1.17.
We will show 2 installation options using sFTP or SSH only.
After installing all the necessary software, let's start downloading the server.
Creating a new directory with any name.
We go into it.
Next, we need to upload the BungeeCord core to this folder (or you can create a separate one for each server). To download the latest version of BungeeCord, we will use the official website: clik.
After downloading, we send the file to our catalog.
We go to the folder of our server via SSH.
Use the command to create a new Screen window:
The window has been created.
Now let's start the server itself. You can do this using an SH script, or manually run it through Java arguments.
-Xms512M — the minimum amount of RAM allocated for the game server.
-Xmx2048M — the maximum amount of RAM that will be available to the server during operation.
-jar — the type of file to run.
ядро.jar — the name of the core of the game server itself.
nogui — an argument for canceling the launch of the GUI, since we don't need it.
The server started successfully on port 25577:
Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + a + d to exit the Screen window.
Great, let's create a new folder for the game server where users can play:
We go into it. Great!
Next, let's download the latest build of the Paper 1.17 core: clik.
Uploading the kernel to our new directory:
Great!
Let's create a new Screen window for this server:
Go to the server directory:
We also use the SH script or command to manually start the server:
As usual, we confirm eula by specifying «eula=true» in the file «eula.txt», and start the server again:
The server has been successfully started.
Now let's consider the option of installing servers entirely through the SSH console. Create a directory in the root folder for our servers, and then go to it:
Download the BungeeCord kernel.
Done.
Creating a new Screen window to start the server:
Starting the server:
The server is running.
Exit the window using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + a + d.
Let's create a new directory for the game server on which users can play, go to it:
Download the latest build of the Paper 1.17 core.
The kernel is loaded.
Creating another Screen window for the new server.
Starting the server.
As usual, we confirm eula by specifying «eula=true» in the file «eula.txt», and start the server again:
Use the key combination Ctrl + a + d to exit the window.
First, let’s look at the «config.yml» file in the BungeeCord folder.
server_connect_timeout
This parameter is responsible for the time during which the player must join the server, otherwise the user will be disconnected.
remote_ping_cache
Allows you to set the time in milliseconds during which BungeeCord will cache the number of players on the server, this option is disabled by default.
forge_support
Responsible for the operation of Forge on BungeeCord servers.
player_limit
The current number of slots on the BungeeCord server. The standard value «-1» is infinite.
permissions
Approves standard rights for various groups on servers.
timeout
How long should the BungeeCord server be unresponsive before disabling all players.
log_commands
If the setting is enabled, then when the player uses the BungeeCord command, the action will be displayed in the console.
network_compression_threshold
Adjusts the network compression threshold, usually configured if the hosting is located far from the central audience of the server.
online_mode
Responsible for the ability to connect via the licensed version of the game. Disable it if you want to make the server pirated.
disabled_commands
Here you can specify forbidden commands.
servers
In this category, servers that interact with BungeeCord are configured, we will look at this in more detail later.
If the restricted option is enabled, only players who have the bungeecord.server permission will be able to connect to the server.[server name].
query_port
Allows you to specify the port that can be used to receive information about the server.
motd
The description of the server is in the main list.
tab_list
Configuring the TAB menu on the server allows you to select several values:
GLOBAL_PING: Displays all players in the tab, updating their ping.
GLOBAL: It also shows the players, but without ping checking.
SERVER: Shows local players on the server.
query_enabled
Activates the GameSpy4 service, which allows you to get information about the server. The port is configured for use in the query.port line.
proxy_protocol
Activates the HAProxy PROXY protocol for all connected players.
forced_hosts
Redirects subdomains to BungeeCord game servers.
ping_passthrough
Allows query connections to receive MOTD and the number of players on the server.
priorities
Allows you to specify priority servers for connecting players.
bind_local_address
Will the IPv4 address used point to the localhost server? This feature is useless if your server does not have multiple IP addresses.
host
The host of the server, taking into account the port. The local address is usually set.
max_players
This is a «fake» number of slots on the server. That is, if you leave the value 0 as it is now, or set any other number of slots, players will be able to log in anyway.
tab_size
The maximum number of players that can be displayed in the server TAB.
force_default_server
Related to the priorities setting. If set to true, the player will connect to priority servers. If false, the player will be returned to the last server.
ip_forward
Setting up redirection of players from the real server address to the Proxy.
remote_ping_timeout
How long should the BungeeCord server not respond to query requests before disconnecting the connection.
prevent_proxy_connections
If this option is enabled, players will not be able to connect to the server using a Proxy.
groups
Allows you to specify the players and the group that will be assigned by default.
connection_throttle
The amount of time in milliseconds that must pass before the player can connect to the server again.
stats
Randomly generated code for checking statistics on the MCStats website. Do not change this value to avoid losing statistics.
connection_throttle_limit
The number of server logins that a player can make during the time specified in the connection_throttle parameter.
log_pings
Sends information about server pings by users to the console.
In the config, we specify the server name, description and address with the port.
We also specify the priority server.
That's all we need for an ordinary connection.
We save the file and send it to the server
OK, now go to the folder with our server for players (survival).
Open the file «server.properties» and set the value of «online-mode=false».
Please note that this particular setting does not affect the connection to the server using a license or a pirated version of the game. In our case, this parameter is used to properly connect to BungeeCord.
The connection via the license is configured in the BungeeCord config "config.yml".
We save and send the file to the directory.
Let's go back to our Bungeecord window using the command
We returned to the BungeeCord console.
Stop server with «end» command and start again:
The server is running.
Exit the window using the combination Ctrl + a + d.
We use the command to connect to the Survival server window:
We also see the console of the running server.
We use the command «stop» to stop.
The server is turned off.
Launching it again:
We have started the server.
Let's check out how BungeeCord works. Adding a standard address with port 25577 (which is used by default in BungeeCord).
The server is displayed in the list.
We're trying to get in.
Great, we've connected to our new server on Minecraft version 1.17!
The BungeeCord console displays the moment of server ping through the Minecraft network list, the process of connecting to BungeeCord itself and redirecting to the Survival server.
Thank you for reading our article. This way you can add an unlimited number of servers to the BungeeCord bundle.
