  1. Temporarily disable mods to join server? Is there a simple way to temporarily disable my mods meant for my single-player experience so that I can play on a server without crashing? I'm afraid to remove them only while playing server in case it borkes my single player.
  2. Launch Dedicated Server. After selecting to open Starbound in Steam the option comes up to launch a dedicated server. This will launch starboundserver.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).
  3. To add an admin on a Starbound server, begin by going on your control panel and clicking 'Stop' to stop your server. Once your server is fully offline, from your control panel click “ FTP File Access ” to enter your server.


(*) You can find the ModId of the mod, opening the workshop page of the mod, and copying the numbers in the end of the workshop page link, example: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=863319225 the ModID it's 863319225
(**) You can download multiple mods by typing multiple modid's separated by a comma, example: 863319225,861138278,863137708
