How to enable Rcon on your V Rising server

In this guide, we are going to show you how to enable RCON on your V Rising Server.

The RCON Protocol is a TCP/IP-based communication protocol used by Source Dedicated Server, which allows console commands to be issued to the server via a “remote console”, or RCON. The most common use of RCON is to allow server owners to control their game servers without direct access to the machine the server is running on

To enable RCON, locate the ServerHostSettings.json which will be located in the below folder

/home/container/server-data/Settings

When you open the file it will look like below

{
"AdminOnlyDebugEvents": true,
"AutoSaveCount": 50,
"AutoSaveInterval": 600,
"Description": "",
"DisableDebugEvents": false,
"GameSettingsPreset": "",
"ListOnMasterServer": true,
"MaxConnectedAdmins": 4,
"MaxConnectedUsers": 20,
"Name": "Pterodactyl hosted Server",
"Password": "",
"Port": 27018,
"QueryPort": 27016,
"Rcon": {
"Enabled": true,
"Password": "somepassword",
"Port": 25575
},
"SaveName": "world1",
"Secure": true,
"ServerFps": 30
}

Edit the below lines ie password (this cannot be left empty) and look on the network tab for a valid TCP port to be used as Rcon port for your V Rising server

"Rcon": {
  "Enabled": true,
  "Password": "somepassword",
  "Port": 25575
}

After editing the lines save and restart your V Rising Server for the changes to take place.

To connect to the server you need an RCON client You can then download a Rcon client
