Running dedicated server with Workshop mods?

thank you

So other players will have to copy their mods to join the server as well I guess. I hope BB can make it easier in the next update.

I don't think that's needed. As long as files inside the mod folder match to workshop mod it seems to work.

Ya as long as server and joining players are loading the seem files, stock and mod files, joining player should be good.

I just join Facial_Burns host. We need more players!!  GoKart Raceway MOD host.

So now the next question too be asked what name do i use for mod tracks in a rotation ?

here are some examples of the other tracks

Races
Sandpit 1 / sandpit1 {rev}
Sandpit 1b / sandpit1b {rev}
Sandpit 2 / sandpit6 {rev}
Tarmac 1 / forest5 {rev}
Tarmac 2 / racing2 {rev}
Tarmac 3 / valer
Figure 8 / oval1b
Figure 8 Small / derby11_rev
Oval / oval1
Speedway 2 / oval2
Inner Oval / oval2c
Gravel 1 / stadium2 {rev}
Mixed 1 / kaanaa
Mixed 2 / valkenswaard

Burns, how you load the GoKart track in your server Friday?

If you have a track mod enabled on a server, just enter "tracks" into the server console to see a list of tracks. It will show the mod track names.

It's still their,

U go to steam > steamapps > workshop > content > 228380

Copy everything their to your mods folder, then find folder out of those u have just copied that contains gokart raceway

The file is a number copy that number to your configure file and put it beside mods=

So you would have to load the track mod first:

mods=688649575( Destruction Derby ), 690463832( Big 8 ramp track ), 691382449( Water Reservoir Derby )

Don't have the Workshop number for the GoKart Raceway. Did I do it right if want to load more than 1 mod?

If you have a track mod enabled on a server, just enter "tracks" into the server console to see a list of tracks. It will show the mod track names.

Then have do Space trick to get track folder name to use in rotation code:

# Race 1
# Black Sails Valley
el_add=BlackSailsValley
el_num_teams=2
el_laps=3
el_time_limit=20
el_elimination_interval=0
el_car_reset_disabled=1
el_wrong_way_limitel_disabled=1
el_car_class_restriction=
el_car_restriction=
el_weather=

# Race 2
# Big 8 Ramp track
el_add=bigfig8ramp01
el_num_teams=2
el_laps=3
el_time_limit=20
el_elimination_interval=0
el_car_reset_disabled=1
el_wrong_way_limitel_disabled=1
el_car_class_restriction=
el_car_restriction=
el_weather=

yeah as long as those files are in you mods folder as well as your workshop content it should work

got it pdatede added more mods

I have little problem to run multiple dedicated servers with different mod set.

Server 1 was setup and running with 'The Very TrackPack' mod just fine.
This mod was placed in 'mods' folder named as 'theverytrackpack' folder.
If I run command '?' on server 1 CLI, I get output showing 'mods=theverytrackpack'.
So everything is fine.

Now I setup server 2. I want to run server 2 without any mods.
I copied 'server1' folder as 'server 2' and made all needed setups for .bat and .cfg files to get server 2 running.
In 'server2_config.cfg' there is no 'mods=' line at all.
I start server 2 and run '?' command on CLI and get output 'mods=The Very TrackPack' (reading name from modinfo.modi file?)
So even without any mods defined in server 2 .cfg file it loads 'The Very TrackPack' mod.
If I remove folder '\mods\theverytrackpack' and start server 2, it will start without any mods just fine.

Also if I now remove 'mods=theverytrackpack' line from server 1 .cfg file it will load mod with name 'The Very TrackPack' (reading name from modinfo.modi file?).
So I cannot run dedicated server without mods if I have 'theverytrackpack' in my 'mods' folder.
I renamed 'theverytrackpack' as 'verytrackpack', but still facing same issue.

I added new mod '838223262' to 'mods' folder.
Now I started server 2 using 'mods=838223262' and server started only with this new mod.

So still problem that I cannot start server 2 without mods while need to run server 1 with 'The Very TrackPack' mod.
Somewhere it has hidden this information it wants to always start with 'The Very TrackPack' mod if that mod is in 'mods' folder.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Edit: And I would guess this cannot be mod specific issue. Just happens that this 'The Very TrackPack' has been only mod I have been running on dedicated server until now when trying to get other server without any mods running.

Make sure both server batch files point to different .cfg files (1 with mod ref 1 without). Run the mod free server first then run the 2nd as admin.

Yes they do:
start_server1.bat ---> start /B server1\Wreckfest.exe -s server_config=server1_config.cfg
start_server2.bat ---> start /B server2\Wreckfest.exe -s server_config=server2_config.cfg
server1_config.cfg --> mods=theverytrackpack
server2_config.cfg --> doesn't have mods line at all

And no help however I try to start servers. Server 2 will get mod anyway.

Note the naming:
When using 'mods=theverytrackpack' parameter CLI '?' output is 'mods=theverytrackpack'
When trying to run without mods CLI '?' output is 'mods=The Very TrackPack'
'theverytrackpack' is name of actual folder name in 'mods' folder that I renamed it to ---> ..\mods\theverytrackpack
'The Very TrackPack' seems to be name in ..\mods\theverytrackpack\modinfo.modi file.
If that helps anything.

Maybe found my error.

For server 2, I did change all three ports to different ports.
steam_port
game_port
query_port

But game_port should stay same on all servers, right?
For first quick test I managed to run both servers with different mod set.

Or not... Still lot of trouble.

Have someone actually managed to get two dedicated servers running on same server with different mod set? Or one with mod and one without mods?

Did more testing about dedicated server with mods and finally I think I got some real progress.

It looks like dedicated server always remembers last 'mods=' setting at first start. You need to start it twice to get new 'mods=' setting in place. Also if you last time run server with mods and try to start server without mods you still have to define 'mods=' line. Just leave everything empty after equal  character. If you just remove whole 'mods=' line then it will always start server with last mods used no matter how many times you restart server.

Example (expecting server has not run with 'mods=' setting earlier):
Put 'mod1' and 'mod2' mods to 'mods' folder.
Modify server cfg to 'mods=mod1'
Start server <------ server is running with 'mod1' mod
Stop server
Modify server cfg 'mods=mod2'
Start server <------ server is actually running with 'mod1' mod even ?-command is showing 'mods=mod2'
Stop server
Start server <------ server is running with 'mod2' mod
Stop server
Modify server cfg 'mods=mod1,mod2'
Start server <------ server is actually running with 'mod2' mod even ?-command is showing 'mods=mod1,mod2'
Stop server
Start server <------ server is running with 'mod1,mod2' mods

This whole thing I need to start server twice to gt new 'mods=' setting in place made lot of confusion. It seemed like some times everything was working and some times not. I have now repeated multiple tests and at least on my server this is how it works.

Can someone else confirm same behavior? And hope to get fix on this.

Edit: And it is not server specific if running multiple dedicated servers. So if you have server 1 running with 'mod1' and you start server 2 with 'mod2', you need to start server 2 twice to get 'mods=mod2' in place.
