ARK: Survival Evolved Server Hosting FAQ.
How much RAM does ARK: Survival Evolved need on a dedicated server?
8-12 GB for a single map. Running a cluster means budgeting that much per map, since each one is its own server process.
Can I install mods when hosting ARK: Survival Evolved?
Yes, through Steam Workshop. Mod IDs go into the server configuration and are pulled on start; load order matters when several mods touch the same items.
How many players can ARK: Survival Evolved support on one server?
20-70. Long-lived servers slow down from accumulated structures and tames more than from player count.
How do I change ARK: Survival Evolved server settings on GameTeam?
Settings for ARK: Survival Evolved live in GameUserSettings.ini and Game.ini, which you can edit directly in the panel file manager. You can also describe the change in plain language and let the GameTeam AI copilot make it β it reads the file first, applies the edit and reads the value back, so you can see what actually changed. Console access, power controls, backups and schedules stay available either way.
