Here&#8217;s what consumes the most resources:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>AI dinosaurs<\/strong> \u2014 By far the biggest variable. Each AI runs pathfinding, physics, and behaviour trees simultaneously. Halving your AI density can reduce RAM usage by 20\u201330%.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Player count<\/strong> \u2014 Each connected player runs a full physics simulation<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corpses<\/strong> \u2014 Dead dinosaurs persist on the map and accumulate over time. Run the RCON command <code>wipecorpses<\/code> periodically to free memory.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Map size<\/strong> \u2014 Gateway is a large map with significant base overhead<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>CPU Requirements<\/h2>\n<p>Evrima&#8217;s game logic is largely single-threaded, which means <strong>clock speed matters more than core count<\/strong>. A fast 4-core CPU outperforms a slow 16-core CPU for this game.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Minimum:<\/strong> 3.0 GHz, 2 cores<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recommended:<\/strong> 3.5 GHz+, 4 cores<\/li>\n<li><strong>100+ players:<\/strong> 4.0 GHz+, 4\u20136 cores<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Storage Requirements<\/h2>\n<p>The Evrima dedicated server install is approximately <strong>8\u201312 GB<\/strong>. Allow headroom for logs and save data growth:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Minimum:<\/strong> 20 GB SSD<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recommended:<\/strong> 40 GB SSD<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Always use SSD storage \u2014 HDD will cause noticeably slow server starts and map loading.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Reduce RAM Usage Without Sacrificing Experience<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re on a budget plan, these Game.ini changes give you the most headroom:<\/p>\n<pre><code>[\/script\/theisle.tigamesession]\nAIDensity=0.5\nAISpawnInterval=60\nMaxPlayerCount=50\nCorpseDecayMultiplier=0.5<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Lowering <code>AIDensity<\/code> to 0.5 is the single most effective performance change you can make. Most players won&#8217;t notice the difference in AI feel, but your server will run significantly smoother.<\/p>\n<h2>Network \/ Bandwidth<\/h2>\n<p>Each Evrima player uses roughly 50\u2013150 KB\/s depending on activity. A 50-player server needs approximately 5\u20137 Mbps sustained. This is well within the capacity of any modern server host \u2014 bandwidth is rarely the bottleneck.<\/p>\n<h2>Choosing a Server Location<\/h2>\n<p>Specs mean nothing if your players have 200ms ping. Pick the data centre closest to your player base:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>US East (New York)<\/strong> \u2014 North America East coast, South America<\/li>\n<li><strong>US West (Los Angeles)<\/strong> \u2014 North America West coast<\/li>\n<li><strong>EU (Frankfurt)<\/strong> \u2014 Europe, UK, Middle East<\/li>\n<li><strong>AU (Sydney)<\/strong> \u2014 Australia, New Zealand<\/li>\n<li><strong>Asia (Singapore)<\/strong> \u2014 Southeast Asia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Get the Right Plan from Day One<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/the-isle-evrima-server-hosting\">XGamingServer The Isle Evrima hosting<\/a> plans are pre-sized for each player count range, running on high-frequency AMD Ryzen processors with NVMe SSD storage across all global locations.
