A Don't Starve Together server with caves that stays up
A dedicated Don't Starve Together server runs the surface world and the caves as two shards on one server, so your group can be above and below ground at the same time without anyone's PC hosting. Days only pass while someone is online if you want, the world is saved automatically and rollback points are kept.
Mods come from the Steam Workshop: paste the links on the Mods page and the server downloads them and sends them to players as they join. Game mode, PvP, player limit and the server token are plain settings in the panel.
Which Don't Starve Together plan do you need?
The surface and the caves each run their own process, which is why a server with caves needs about twice the memory of one without:
Surface only: DST I
2 GB for up to 6 players on the surface world with a few mods, caves turned off.
Surface and caves: DST II to III
4 to 6 GB for the full world with caves, 6 to 16 players and a longer mod list.
Big worlds and many mods: DST IV
8 GB for 16 or more players, large world sizes and heavy mods such as Island Adventures.
What your Don't Starve Together server comes with
Everything the Klei setup guide asks you to do by hand is handled by the panel:
Caves with one switch
Turn the caves on or off under Game Settings; the panel wires both shards together, ports included.
Workshop mods
Paste Workshop links or a collection on the Mods page; the server downloads the mods and enables them on the surface and in the caves.
Server token and admins
Paste the token from your Klei account once, add admins by their Klei ID, and set game mode, PvP, intention and vote kick without touching a file.
Don't Starve Together servers in 15 locations
A low ping makes dodging a Deerclops a lot friendlier. Pick a location close to your group:
Pick the location closest to most of your players; the server moves to another location later for free if your group changes.

Move an existing world to VibeGAMES
A world from a server you hosted yourself or at another host keeps its progress:
- 1
Upload the Master and Caves folders of your cluster to DoNotStarveTogether/config/server through the file manager or SFTP.
- 2
Keep your own cluster.ini settings or set them again under Game Settings; the panel writes them on start.
- 3
Start the server; it loads the existing save instead of generating a new world.
