## FAQ

### How does the Blood Type system work in V Rising and how do server settings affect it?

V Rising features six blood types -- Creature, Warrior, Rogue, Brute, Scholar, and Worker -- each granting different combat and survival bonuses. The strength of these bonuses scales with blood quality percentage, so feeding on a 90% Scholar gives far better spell bonuses than a 30% one. On a dedicated server, you can adjust blood quality spawn rates in ServerGameSettings.json to make high-quality blood more or less common, directly shaping how powerful players can become.

### How many players can join a V Rising dedicated server and how much RAM is needed?

V Rising dedicated servers support up to 40 players. For a small group of under 10 players, 4GB of RAM handles the server smoothly. Larger servers with 20-40 active players building castles and fighting V Blood bosses benefit from 6-8GB. RAM usage scales primarily with the number of active castles and servants on the map rather than just player count.

### What are V Blood bosses and why do they matter for server progression?

V Blood bosses are 50+ unique named enemies scattered across the map that serve as the main progression system in V Rising. Defeating each V Blood boss unlocks specific vampire abilities, crafting recipes, and building structures. On a dedicated server, bosses respawn on a timer so multiple players or clans can defeat them independently. Server admins can adjust boss difficulty and respawn timers in ServerGameSettings.json.

### How does the Castle Heart work and what happens if it runs out of Blood Essence?

The Castle Heart is the core of every player's castle in V Rising. It must be fueled with Blood Essence to keep the castle active and prevent decay. If the Castle Heart runs dry, castle walls and structures begin deteriorating and eventually collapse. On a dedicated server, castle decay rate is configurable in ServerGameSettings.json, and admins can adjust how quickly Blood Essence drains to suit casual or hardcore playstyles.

### What are the key server configuration files for V Rising and what port does it use?

V Rising uses two main configuration files: ServerHostSettings.json controls network settings like server name, port, password, max players, and query port. ServerGameSettings.json controls gameplay settings including PvP/PvE mode, sun damage intensity, clan size limits, castle decay rate, and gear score balancing. The default game port is 9876 UDP. Both files are editable through our control panel's file manager.

### How does sunlight and the day/night cycle affect gameplay on a V Rising server?

Since all players are vampires, exposure to direct sunlight causes rapid damage and can kill you quickly. Players must travel using shadows cast by trees, cliffs, and buildings during daytime, or stay indoors until nightfall. Server admins can adjust the day and night cycle length and sun damage intensity in ServerGameSettings.json, letting you create servers where daytime is a brief inconvenience or a genuinely deadly threat.

### Does V Rising support mods and is there crossplay between platforms?

V Rising does not have official mod support, though some community tools like BepInEx-based mods exist for server-side tweaks. Regarding crossplay, V Rising is currently PC-only via Steam with no crossplay functionality. The 1.0 release in May 2024 brought the game out of early access with expanded content including the Gloomrot and Ruins of Mortium areas, but cross-platform play has not been added.

### How does V Rising's Gear Score progression differ from traditional leveling and how does it work on servers?

V Rising uses a Gear Score system instead of traditional character levels. Your power is determined by the equipment you wear and weapons you carry, not experience points. Crafting better gear at stations like the Blood Press, Sawmill, Grinder, and Furnace raises your Gear Score, which determines which V Blood bosses you can realistically challenge. On a dedicated server, admins can configure Gear Score balancing for PvP to prevent overgeared players from dominating lower-tier areas.
