## FAQ

### What is Duckside and why does it need a dedicated server?

Duckside is an open-world survival game developed by Perceptive Games and published by TinyBuild, where you play as armed ducks in a PvP-focused world inspired by Rust and DayZ. With support for 50+ concurrent players, base raiding, flight mechanics, and a full day/night cycle, a dedicated server ensures your duck world stays online 24/7 with stable performance and low latency for all players.

### How many players can join a Duckside dedicated server?

Duckside dedicated servers support 50 or more concurrent players. The exact capacity depends on your server's RAM and CPU allocation. We recommend at least 8GB of RAM for larger servers with 40+ armed ducks battling, raiding bases, and flying across the map simultaneously.

### How much RAM does a Duckside server need?

Duckside servers generally require 4-8GB of RAM depending on player count and world activity. A smaller server with under 20 players runs well on 4GB, while larger PvP-heavy servers with frequent base raids and 40+ players should use 8GB or more for smooth performance.

### What platforms support Duckside?

Duckside is currently available exclusively on PC via Steam. The game entered Early Access in 2024 and is actively developed by Perceptive Games. All players connect through Steam, so your dedicated server must be configured for Steam-based authentication.

### Can I configure PvP rules and raid settings on my Duckside server?

Yes. Duckside server configuration is handled through server config files, which you can edit directly via SFTP or our Pterodactyl-based panel. You can adjust PvP settings, raid windows, day/night cycle duration, resource gathering rates, crafting speeds, and survival mechanics like food and water drain rates.

### Does Duckside have flight mechanics on dedicated servers?

Yes, Duckside's unique flight and gliding mechanics work fully on dedicated servers. Since all characters are ducks, players can glide and fly across the open world, adding a vertical dimension to PvP combat, base raiding, and exploration that you won't find in traditional survival games like Rust or DayZ.

### How do base building and raids work in Duckside?

Duckside features a Rust-inspired base building and raiding system. Players gather resources, craft building materials, and construct bases to protect their loot. Other players can raid these bases using explosives and weapons. On a dedicated server, you can configure raid schedules, building decay rates, and other base-related settings through the server config files.

### How do I get started with a Duckside server at XGamingServer?

You get full access to our Pterodactyl control panel to manage server settings, config files, backups, and restarts. Use code XGAMEON for 30% off your first month.
