From Citadel Servers Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
The following guide will help you troubleshoot why your service isn't showing up in the in-game browser listing.
 
 
Please Note:

Servers can take up to 5 - 10 minutes to start

You will know it's started when the CPU drops to around 50% and RAM is at 2.5GB or more.

Updates:

The game currently has been updating 1 - 3 times per day, and the servers usually need an update as well to stay in the listing.

 
1) Click Stop on your service.

2) Click the 'STEAM Update' button and wait for it to finish

3) Start your server


If this doesn't work, then the issue is probably the browser listing.

Currently
, there is a bug which prevents servers from being shown to every user.


This issue is only the in-game
 browser and doesn't affect the STEAM list.
