Game servers

Clusters

A cluster groups servers so players (and their characters/items) can transfer between them, and so you can manage them together.

What a cluster gives you

  • Cross-server transfers — players move between maps keeping characters and items (ARK).
  • Cluster-wide actions — restart, update, broadcast or wipe every server at once.
  • Aggregated chat — read live chat from all servers on one screen.

Create & manage

  1. Use the + next to Game servers in the sidebar, or Manage clusters (the ✎ icon).
  2. Name the cluster and assign servers to it.
  3. Open the cluster page for broadcast, schedule and maintenance tools.
Important: Cluster maintenance actions like Wipe are destructive and affect every server in the cluster. Take a backup first.
