FAQ

Straight answers.

How much RAM does an ARK server need?

ARK is famously memory-hungry. A small vanilla map runs on about 6 GB; modded maps and clusters comfortably want 8–16 GB. Size up if you run lots of Workshop mods or several maps at once.

Can I install Steam Workshop mods?

Yes. You have full file access, so you add Workshop mod IDs, load custom maps and edit configs directly — no locked settings.

Can I run a cluster across multiple maps?

Yes — run several ARK instances and link them as a cluster so players transfer characters and items between maps. You control the cluster settings.

Can I edit rates and GameUserSettings.ini?

Absolutely — full config and file access means XP/harvest/taming rates, day-night cycles and every setting are yours to change.

Where are the servers?

Dedicated single-tenant bare-metal machines in the central and eastern US, with SSD storage and DDoS protection.
