SuperTuxKart··2 min read

SuperTuxKart is the free, open-source kart racer with online multiplayer. A dedicated server keeps your races and battle modes online for friends worldwide. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a SuperTuxKart server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.

What you need

  • A SuperTuxKart plan with around 256 MB–1 GB of RAM — SuperTuxKart is a Light-class game.
  • Support for server config files, included on every GGameHost SuperTuxKart plan.
  • Your friends or community to play with (up to 8+ slots).

Step 1 — Choose your plan

Pick a plan sized for your SuperTuxKart community. We recommend about 256 MB–1 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. SuperTuxKart plans start at $3.99/mo.

Step 2 — Deploy your server

Check out and your SuperTuxKart 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 SuperTuxKart 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 SuperTuxKart server supports Open-source, Config, Custom tracks, 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 SuperTuxKart server stable.
