The Evrima list runs on EOS: set the in-game browser Session Filter to Unofficial and search by name. The Steam View->Game Servers favourite route is the fallback, and not every server publishes a Steam A2S query port. This site does not generate steam://connect links (Evrima direct-connect behaviour is unverified)

Triage tree for "not listed / DATA ACQUISITION FAILED / admin port unreachable": missing EOS credentials, branch mismatch (evrima/spiro/legacy), queue port not open (TCP), NAT loopback, file verification - all with official log signatures

Official site/roadmap/Steam discussions + the theisle.info community guide + the evrima-dev-knowledge modding KB + RCON client libraries in 8 languages and server managers, all logged with source tiers, no endorsements. No Steam Workshop (store category evidence); modding = server-side UE4SS Lua

Growth time = measured baseline / GrowthMultiplier (explicit modelling assumption, 20 vs 40 advisory gate D11) + pure-arithmetic day/night, weather and migration timelines (45/20 min, 600-900s, 5400/10800/43200/7200s, all editable). No built-in species table: community growth data conflicts and drifts with patches; the page says where to read measured values

Server admin and config generation (5)

Config files, startup scripts and command wizards for running a server

Game 7777 UDP (multi-instance range 7777-7779) / Queue 10000 TCP (must be open when bQueueEnabled=true, otherwise joins fail with DATA ACQUISITION FAILED) / RCON 8888 TCP (proprietary protocol). Four conflicting port claims shown side by side (D1/D2); any multi-instance collision rejects the whole plan

#multi-instance#four claims
Generate config →

Four platforms: ufw / firewalld / iptables / netsh. Only the game UDP rule by default; queue TCP follows its toggle; the RCON rule requires an explicit opt-in plus a "exposing RCON hands over the server" warning and an optional admin source-IP restriction. Output never contains steam:// links

#RCON closed by default#source-IP restriction

Anonymous install of 412680 + branch selector (evrima/spiro0.11.59.04/legacy; Spiro requires removing MapName=Gateway from Game.ini) + Linux sdk32/sdk64 steamclient.so symlinks + manual config-dir reminder (the server never creates the ini files) + the config-wipe-on-stop bug warning + optional systemd (off by default) + copy-only backups

Generates for three launch hosts (Windows exe / Linux Shipping binary / docker sh) with both the ?Port= and -Port= forms side by side (D8); EOS credentials are always emitted as placeholders (the function never accepts plaintext); -log and the auto-update/auto-restart bat loop are optional; MaxPlayerCount>100 confirmation gate (D9)

Server notes

SteamCMD must pass -beta evrima for 412680 (the Spiro map lives on branch spiro0.11.59.04 and needs MapName=Gateway removed from Game.ini; Legacy is a different config system this site does not cover). With the two [EpicOnlineServices] DedicatedServerClientId/Secret lines missing from Engine.ini, the community guide says "the server won't start" while the old site claimed "it never gets listed" - both claims are shown (D7); the credential values ship with the install (the upstream egg embeds the same public dev credentials) and this site always emits placeholders instead of copying them. RCON on 8888/TCP is a proprietary binary protocol (not Source RCON) - mcrcon and friends cannot connect; four port claims coexist (8888/9999/5555/44000, D1) and your own Game.ini RconPort wins. The server list runs on EOS: hasServerList=false means this site has not implemented the EOS query, not that no list exists; some servers additionally publish Steam A2S and show up in Steam favourites, but that is not universal. The server never creates the ini files itself, and a bug deleting Game.ini/Engine.ini on stop is reported (the WindowsGSM plugin ships an auto-redownload workaround) - check the files still exist after every stop.
