  • SteamCMD, Debian ghcr.io/ptero-eggs/steamcmd:debian

Panel features

  • steam_disk_space

    The Panel tells the user when SteamCMD does not have enough disk space.

Startup

The Panel runs this command to start the server. It replaces each variable in the command with the value of that variable.

5 variables

Startup command

./bin/linux_x64/eurotrucks2_server

  • Auto update the server on startup

    AUTO_UPDATEUsers can edit

    required|boolean

  • SRCDS_APPIDUsers cannot see

    required|string|in:1948160

  • By there readme of the game the query port must be between 27015-27020, but from our testing this port can be any port

    QUERY_PORTUsers can see

    required|string

  • By default, whenever a dedicated server is launched it is using an anonymous account. For such an account non-persistent server id is generated (used for direct search). To avoid this you can acquire a logon token on https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers (game ownership is required)

    STEAM_TOKENUsers can edit

    nullable|string|max:32

  • LOBBY_NAMEUsers can edit

    required|string|max:64

Readme

ETS2 Ptero - A Egg For Setting Up ETS2 Dedicated Server

Ports below are the default ports that are associated with the ETS2 dedicated server.

Port default
Dedicated 27015
Query 27016

Adding moderators

To add moderators to your server instance you have to edit (.local/share/Euro Truck Simulator 2/server_config.sii) An example seen below:

moderator_list: 3
moderator_list[0]: Steam64_ID
moderator_list[1]: Steam64_ID
moderator_list[2]: Steam64_ID

^^^ Steam64_ID can be found by googling Steam ID Lookup

Enjoy your server

Once those files have been uploaded and configured you are free to start up your server. When the sever is started look for the line: Session search id: 00000000000000000/101 The number before the / is your search term. This is number to search for in the convoy screen to find your server. You can NOT search by the server name at this time. Example: if your number before the / is 987654321 then you would search for 987654321 on your convoy screen in game.

Steam Server Token

--A steam server Token is required--

Adding a server token received from registering your server at https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers be sure to use the correct App ID or your server will crash upon startup.

Disclaimer

I do not claim to know everything about this setup as I just got it reliably working myself and will update the egg if anything changes. That being said, if you have problems open up an issue and I will do my best to help if when I have the time.
