Server Console

It would be nice to be able to host a server without having the game actually launched....

I want to begin experimenting with performance and such, but don't want a game actually launched on my server machine.

I agree, if we want real servers, we want client and server logic to be completely separated.

But there should be still a possibility for people who don't want to mess up with those difficulties to make a request to the preinstalled local server and create a new map with settings made in client GUI.

Simply IMHO, maybe a weird idea

I agree, completelyseparate server/client logic is necessary.

Currently, I cannot even host a Blockscape server on my main server machine, because I have no graphics card on my server. It is a headless system.

Multiplayer is the key aspect in this game that I look forward to, hopefully the dev takes note of this request in the near future In addition to a plugin API system hehe.

I hear you. The current implementation is enough if you want to play together with your friends. More options and a standalone server is on its way. The plugin API will probably be released first though.

Plugin API before server work sounds like a good priority list, as the sooner modders have to begin tinkering the better!

Awesome work so far man, I am rooting for this game. Also, thanks for responding to the inquiry! I would say ignore the duplicate I just left on the multiplayer thread haha.

Has there been any progress made on a deadicated server front yet? Very interested to see this

No official news but we could hope one when Survival comes out and BS will have tons of new users waiting for a server (It is confirmed that dedicated server will come eventually and onto multiple platforms)
I have multiple boxes waiting for a BS serv for linux, so i could start hosting right away
