How to Set Up a Colony Survival Server

Colony Survival··2 min read

Colony Survival is a voxel colony-builder where you grow a settlement and defend it from nightly monster waves. A dedicated server keeps the colony running for co-op play around the clock. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a Colony Survival server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.

What you need

  • A Colony Survival plan with around 2–4 GB of RAM — Colony Survival is a Medium-class game.
  • Support for server config and mods, included on every GGameHost Colony Survival plan.
  • Your friends or community to play with (up to 10+ slots).

Step 1 — Choose your plan

Pick a plan sized for your Colony Survival community. We recommend about 2–4 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. Colony Survival plans start at $10.99/mo.

Step 2 — Deploy your server

Check out and your Colony Survival 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 Colony Survival 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 Colony Survival server supports Mods, World config, Backups, FTP/SFTP. Install server config and mods 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 Colony Survival server stable.
