How to Set Up a Aloft Server

Aloft··2 min read

Aloft is a survival-crafter set on floating islands you can sail through the sky. A dedicated server keeps your airborne world persistent for friends to explore. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a Aloft server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.

What you need

  • A Aloft plan with around 4–8 GB of RAM — Aloft is a Medium-class game.
  • Support for server config files, included on every GGameHost Aloft plan.
  • Your friends or community to play with (up to 8 slots).

Step 1 — Choose your plan

Pick a plan sized for your Aloft community. We recommend about 4–8 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. Aloft plans start at $10.99/mo.

Step 2 — Deploy your server

Check out and your Aloft server provisions automatically in under 60 seconds, with console access right away — no manual install, no command line.

Step 3 — Connect & invite players

Once your Aloft server is online, share its address (IP and port) with your friends so they can join. Start, stop and restart it anytime from the control panel.

Step 4 — Install mods & configure

Your Aloft server supports Co-op, Config, Backups, FTP/SFTP. Install server config files straight from the one-click installer, or upload your own from the control panel — then tweak settings in the visual config editor.

Step 5 — Keep it running smoothly

Enable scheduled automatic backups, set restart timers, and monitor CPU, RAM and player counts from the dashboard. Always-on DDoS protection and 24/7 support keep your Aloft server stable.
