## FAQ

### What is Aloft and what kind of game is it?

Aloft is a cozy open-world survival crafting game by Astrolabe Interactive set on floating sky islands above the clouds. Players gather resources, build homes, farm, care for animals, and can transform any island into a flyable skyship. The game features a corruption mechanic where players research antidotes and cure infected ecosystems.

### How many players can join an Aloft dedicated server?

Aloft supports up to 8 players on a shared multiplayer world called a Realmscape. On a dedicated server, all 8 players get stable connections and low latency compared to peer-to-peer hosting.

### What is a Realmscape in Aloft and how does it work on a server?

A Realmscape is Aloft's shared multiplayer world containing all sky islands, player structures, crops, animals, and corruption cure progress. On a dedicated server, the Realmscape stays online 24/7 so friends can join and progress even when others are offline.

### How does the corruption mechanic work on a dedicated Aloft server?

Islands are affected by a fungal corruption that damages ecosystems. Players research samples, brew antidotes, and apply cures. On a dedicated server, corruption progresses in real-time, creating urgency. Cured islands stay cured and provide better resources.

### How much RAM does an Aloft dedicated server need?

Aloft runs well on 4GB RAM for 2-3 players. For a full 8-player Realmscape with extensive building and multiple sailed islands, 6-8GB is recommended. The Starter plan (4GB) handles casual sessions, while the Novice plan (6GB) and above support full groups.

### Can I fly my island on a dedicated server?

Yes. Build a helm, rudder, and sails to turn any island into a flyable skyship. Multiple players can pilot their own islands or crew a single island together. The server handles all physics and world streaming.

### How much does Aloft server hosting cost?

Aloft server hosting starts at $7/month (30% off $10/month) for the Starter plan with 4GB DDR5 RAM and 2 dedicated AMD Ryzen 9 7950X threads. Plans scale up to $42/month for the Ultimate plan with 24GB RAM and 8 threads. All plans include DDoS protection, NVMe SSD, backups, and 24/7 support.

### What is the difference between local hosting and a dedicated Aloft server?

Local hosting ties the world to the host's PC — when they disconnect, everyone gets kicked. A dedicated server keeps the Realmscape online 24/7 on enterprise hardware with DDoS protection, automated backups, and global datacenters for low ping.
