Question

hi I want to make a global multiplayer game. and I have rented a vps server from a site for this, but I don't know how to connect this server to my godot project and how to add my players to the server. please help.

Answer 1

The VPS server is just an empty box that you can connect to via SSH for example. You need to set up an actual web server on the box (install and configure software) to start with to provide a service to your game clients that try to connect to it. This needs a high level of server admin expertise.

well, can you send me a code to communicate with the ip address of the server I rented and the server?

The server I rented "https://www.pratikresim.com/domain-names.php" is from this site. if necessary.

Answer 2

Personally I have never rented VPS from this service, but the best thing you can do is get some costumer service from them. They should explain you everything you need to know to get you started. There is just to much to talk about. But, one thing is certain; You can login to your server via SSH. You'll need SSH client like PUTTY to connect to your server. Also, you must know what you've actually bought. Do you know what OS is running on the VPS? Do you have full root access? Is the internet connection reliable enough to host your game on it? But, my advice is, because I assume that you're a novice to this topic, that you should get someone to do it for you.
