BEFORE YOU DEPLOY
Useful answers, up front.
Does setting 120 guarantee 120 TPS?
No. The target removes or changes the cap; actual TPS still depends on single-thread CPU performance, map load, mods, creatures and players. Start at 60 and increase gradually.
Do players install anything?
No. This is a native server-side ASA Server API plugin. Clients connect normally.
What does one activation mean?
One concurrently activated ASA server instance. You can deactivate an instance before moving the licence to another machine.
Can a game server host use a private licence?
No. Any use as part of a paid hosting service requires a Hosting licence sized for the number of active customer instances.
What happens if the licence API is temporarily offline?
A signed offline lease lets a valid installation continue for the grace period attached to its plan. The private plans currently include 24 hours.
What is required?
An ASA dedicated server, ASA Server API 2.01, outbound HTTPS access and the plugin package for your operating environment.
