⛏️ What Are Player Slots?

Player slots determine how many players can join your server at once.
  • ➡️ A 10-slot server allows 10 players to connect simultaneously
  • ➡️ Slot count is usually adjustable based on your hosting plan
✔️ Some hosts allow you to set your slot number manually, while others lock it based on your package.

​
➕ More Players = More Resources

The more players your server supports, the more CPU and RAM it will use. Other factors also affect performance:
  • ➡️ Large or complex maps
  • ➡️ Game modes like TTT, DarkRP, or heavily scripted gamemodes
  • ➡️ Addons and Workshop content
❗ If your server lags with more players, you may need to upgrade your plan or optimize your content.

​
➖ Minimum Requirements (General Guide)

  • ✔️ 2–4 players: 2 GB RAM, minimal CPU usage (Sandbox or basic TTT)
  • ✔️ 8–16 players: 3–4 GB RAM, better CPU recommended
  • ✔️ 20+ players or DarkRP: 5–8 GB RAM+, strong single-threaded CPU
✔️ These are general estimates — actual usage depends heavily on your setup.
  • ➡️ Don’t overload your server with unnecessary addons
  • ➡️ Regularly restart to clear up memory leaks
  • ➡️ Monitor performance via your panel’s resource stats
