Manually –
Run the Starbound server in your Starbound directory. The default location is:
On 32-bit Windows, C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\starbound\win32\starbound_server.exe On 64-bit Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\win32\starbound_server.exe On Mac OS, ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound On 64-bit Linux, ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux/starbound_server (there is no 32-bit Linux server) If the Starbound server cannot be found at these locations, then right-click the game in Steam to find the Starbound directory.
To host a server you will need to forward/allow TCP port 21025 on your router and firewall (if enabled) See the resource section on a Remote Port Testing URL If the resource reports that the port is closed then you will need to:
Check your firewall(s) in your OS Check your forwarding rules on your router(s)
Locally, you should still be able to connect to your server using the IP 127.0.0.1 (Local Loopback) in the Starbound client, however your friends won’t. Once the remote tool reports that the port is open, then you may give your IP out to your friends to play. To locate your IP use this, or another similar URL
Load the game, click “Multiplayer” in the main menu Select the character you wish to use Server Address: Enter the IP or DNS name you wish to connect to. Enter the server account and password if this has been configured, otherwise it can be left blank Click on “Join Server” Invite your friends to connect too!

How do I Run A Starbound server on Steam?
The Steam ‘join game’ option
Steam (all OS)
The easiest way to connect to friends playing Starbound is through your Steam friend list. Simply right click a player’s name in your friends list and select ‘Join Game’. This will connect you to their in-progress game of Starbound and you’ll appear in their universe.
There you’ll have everything on your ship with you, but anything on planets will appear as it does in their game, not yours. Alternatively you can select ‘Invite to game’ which will invite them to join your game with whatever character they’re playing with. You must be logged into the game with a character for this option to be available.
After selecting to open Starbound in Steam the option comes up to launch a dedicated server. This will launch starbound_server.exe which hosts a server from your machine. This allows players to connect to your machine to play Starbound, even if the game is closed (provided the server software is still running).
Linux (Ubuntu)

If the computer you wish to run the server on has a private IP : You will need administrative access to all routers between the server and the internet (In a typical home, you may have up to 2 or more. In some cases the modem itself has a built in router that is often overlooked) You will also likely need administrative access to any firewalls between the server and the internet (In a typical home, this would just be the firewall built into your OS)

How do you join multiplayer in Starbound without Hamachi?
alright so i don’t know how to use the whole “steam multiplayer” thing, but if you use hamachi it should work out fine. If you don’t know how to use hamachi, basically just set up everyone with hamachi, (get everyone to download it, easiest way is here https://www.vpn.net/ ) make a server and get everyone to connect to it, there’s more indepth tutorials if you google for how to do that (it’s the click of a button and enter a user/pass thing) Once you have the hamachi server set up, you’re halfway there.
- You then need to find your IP, which is on the little hamachi GUI thing.
- It’ll always start with 25.something.whatever.blah once you have that you need to open starbound, the HOST will join a singleplayer world, then everyone else will connect with multiplayer and the host’s IP into the multiplayer join thing.
this might should work maybe

Does Starbound have multiplayer?
| Article Stub This article is a stub. You can help Starbound’s official Wiki by expanding it! |
Multiplayer refers to playing together with other player controlled characters in game. This can be done either cooperatively or as player-vs-player combat. The entire in-game universe and story is available in both single and multiplayer. Servers have the potential for an infinite number of players; the limitations are based on the server hardware and internet.
- The multiplayer is seamless, and LAN and Internet based play is more or less identical to playing solo.
- Each instance of the game is housed on a server, which players must connect to in order to play together.
- The servers are not centralized or run by Chucklefish, meaning all servers will be player moderated public or private.
The universe of play is the same one the host will play on in singleplayer, and all connected players retain their character inventories and ships. There are several different ways to set up a multiplayer game; i.e servers, steam, etc. Look at the Setting Up Multiplayer Guide for more info.
