I have a 1-vs-1 up to 2-vs-2 multiplayer game.
Right now I’ve got it running on a Digital Ocean Ubuntu instance (a single dedicated server).
But what if I need 10 servers running, or 100?
I can’t seem to find good info on what UE4 dedicated servers demand in terms of system hardware.
Also will this be expensive? Would it be cheaper to create my own replication and pass bits and bytes around instead of using UE4 dedicated server?
Any example games out there running UE4 dedicated servers?
Same as typical UE4 game minus GPU requirement, you don’t need GPU for it at all actually, minus CPU time for rendering so CPU usage should liter, memory usage should liter too a little bit. Dedicated server still need to run game state, so it still require some CPU power and memory more then typical server software. You could run dedicated server your see and see how much it takes.
If you really need specific specs i think good way is to check is look on hosting services and see what specs do they use for hosting servers of UE4 games
I successed with cent os 8.3 even with apache , node.js process and mongodb . Works but bad delta time intervals (lags). I will comment my expirience with new clear 5$ centos min linux without any other installatin and running other threads… I run on http://IPADDRESS:8889 with html5 ue net driver …
