What is a OpenRCT2 dedicated server?

An OpenRCT2 dedicated server hosts a shared park that multiple players can build and manage together. The park save stays on the server between sessions.

Crafty downloads the current OpenRCT2 command-line release and includes a starter park, so original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 data files are not required for this dedicated-server setup.

Why host OpenRCT2 with Crafty Servers?

One-click setup

The current OpenRCT2 server release and a ready-to-host starter park download automatically.

Bring any park

Start from the included save or upload an existing .park file and keep its autosaves together on the server.

Full server controls

Manage power and console access from the dashboard. Paid sizes add writable files, SFTP, schedules and automatic backup retention.

Runs comfortably on free

OpenRCT2 is lightweight enough for the free size, while a paid size keeps a public park always online.

Frequently asked questions

Which plan runs OpenRCT2?

OpenRCT2 runs on the free size. Choose a paid size when you want an always-on park or additional operational features.

What do players need to join?

OpenRCT2 and the server hostname and port shown on the dashboard.

How do players connect?

Use the stable hostname and game port shown on the Crafty dashboard. Standalone games use an explicit port rather than a Minecraft SRV address.

Can I manage my OpenRCT2 server files?

Paid sizes provide writable files and SFTP for parks and users.json, plus schedules and automatic backup retention.
