What is a OpenTTD dedicated server?

An OpenTTD dedicated server keeps a shared transport company or competitive map online while players build rail, road, sea and air networks together.

Crafty downloads the current official server release and prepares a new game with configurable company, network and map-generation settings.

Why host OpenTTD with Crafty Servers?

One-click setup

Crafty downloads the current official server release and prepares a new game with configurable company, network and map-generation settings.

One living transport network

Players can expand the same towns and routes across multiple sessions.

Full server controls

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

Sized for the game

OpenTTD is lightweight enough for the free size, with paid always-on sizes available.

Frequently asked questions

Which plan runs OpenTTD?

OpenTTD can start on the free size. Choose paid hosting for an always-available public game.

What do players need to join?

The free OpenTTD client compatible with the server version and the dashboard address.

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 OpenTTD server files?

Yes. Edit openttd.cfg, replace saves and control map generation or network rules. Paid sizes include writable files, SFTP, schedules and automatic backup retention.
