So we have now logged into the game panel, and can see our new Don't Starve Together server.


Step 2: Generate the Cluster/Server Token

Now that we've entered the configuration files, we need to click the Configuration Editor option on the "cluster_token.txt" file.



Once we load that, you'll see an empty box.

Don't worry, that's normal. Our job is to now get the server token and place it in there.

What we do now it start up our "Don't Starve Together" client, and click the "Acct Info" button on the main menu.

The game will generate the token for us, so close the game, and go to the following directory:
