Three server types, one switch: Stable, tModLoader, TShock

Pick the branch in the panel and the server installs that build: vanilla Terraria for a plain co-op world, tModLoader for mod packs, TShock for permissions, regions and anti-grief. Switch later without opening a ticket. Slots are set by your plan and written into serverconfig.txt as maxplayers at every start.

Mods and plugins the way each branch expects them

On tModLoader, upload .tmod files and the server rewrites enabled.json from what is actually in Mods/, so a mod you add is enabled and a mod you remove stops being referenced; ModConfigs/ and the tModLoader logs are exposed next to it. On TShock, .dll plugins go into ServerPlugins/ and config.json, sscconfig.json, motd.txt and the TShock database sit in a folder you can edit. Worlds upload and download from the worlds folder on any branch.

Terraria mods require tModLoader. You can switch your server between Stable, tModLoader, and TShock from the control panel when you need a different setup.

World generation and rules as panel fields

Seed (including the secret seeds), world size (small, medium, large), difficulty (classic, expert, master or journey), server password, message of the day and the anti-cheat secure flag are validated settings in the panel and land in serverconfig.txt on restart. A new world is generated with autocreate from those values; an existing world uploaded to the worlds folder is used as is.

Terraria control panel setup

The panel makes server creation straightforward, from region selection to version choice.

  • 1
    Choose region. Pick the closest location for lower latency.
  • 2
    Select version. Run Stable (vanilla), tModLoader for mods, or TShock for admin tooling.
  • 3
    Create or switch anytime. Launch in one click and change between Stable, tModLoader, or TShock later from the panel.

Discord chat commands for Terraria server management

More than a server box

Free in every plan. No add-ons, no upsell.

Public server pages

Every server gets a shareable URL like supercraft.host/s/your-server with live player count, uptime status, one-click join, and an “about” block for rules and lore.

Listed in the public directory at supercraft.host/servers: a second free traffic source for your community. Off by default; you decide what’s public.

Recipes marketplace

One-click curated modded servers. A Recipe is a hand-picked mod list with pinned versions, tested defaults, and a short description, so you launch the experience without becoming an amateur modpack engineer.

Live today for Palworld, Valheim, Project Zomboid (incl. Build 42), and Minecraft. More games every few weeks.

Browse the marketplace →
Discord webhooks & live players

Wire join / leave / status events straight into your Discord. Paste a webhook URL into the panel, pick the events that matter, done.

Pair it with the real-time player list shown in the panel and on your public page: not a stale “12 players” number, the actual names of who’s on right now.

Switch games anytime

One subscription, 30+ games. Got bored of one game? Switch to another supported by your plan, in the panel, without buying a new plan or losing your billing cycle.

Includes free instant region change: move your server between EU and NA in one click, no re-purchase. Your community keeps playing.

Launch with a ready-made Terraria setup

Terraria Server Hosting FAQ

How much does a Terraria server cost?
Managed Terraria hosting starts at $5.99/mo. Both vanilla TerrariaServer.bin and tModLoader are supported on the same plan. Pricing includes mod auto-install, world uploads, and instant restart.
How much RAM does a Terraria server need?
2 GB is enough for a vanilla 4-player server. tModLoader with a moderate modpack (Calamity, Thorium) wants 4 GB. Large worlds (Large, journey mode) and 8+ players go to 6 GB.
Vanilla Terraria or tModLoader for hosting?
If your group hasn't played much vanilla yet, start vanilla. tModLoader (separate binary) opens the modded content but the difficulty curve assumes vanilla mechanics. We can pre-install tModLoader on day one if your group asks for it.

FAQ

Yes. Upload mods and configs via the control panel or FTP, then restart to apply changes.

Up to 8 players on Plan S, 16 on Plan M, and 32 on Plan L. Terraria’s engine starts to feel cramped above 16 players, so 32 is recommended mostly for events and dip-in/dip-out communities.

Yes. Import your world save via the file manager or FTP and keep all player data.

We host in US West (Oregon), US North-East (Toronto), Europe West (Paris), and Australia (Sydney) for low latency.

Yes. We run automatic snapshots and provide on-demand backups for quick restores.

On Supercraft, Plan S (8 players) is $5.99/mo monthly or $4.67/mo billed annually. Plan M (16 players) is $9.99/mo monthly or $7.83/mo annual, and Plan L (32 players) is $14.99/mo monthly or $11.67/mo annual. Terraria is lightweight, so cost mostly follows player slots, mods, and world size - every plan already includes uncapped RAM, NVMe storage, FTP, DDoS protection, and daily snapshots.

Yes. In My Account → Subscriptions, you can upgrade to a higher tier of the same game with the same billing cadence (for example, monthly to monthly). Downgrades are not available right now. During an upgrade, your deployment is updated in place (quota update + restart), not wiped and recreated.

Yes. From the control panel you can switch your server between vanilla Stable, tModLoader (for mods), and TShock (for admin tooling, groups, and plugins) at any time. World saves carry over - just keep in mind that modded saves depend on the mods you have enabled, so switching back to vanilla Stable may skip content that only exists in tModLoader. Plan S runs Stable only; Plan M and Plan L support all three branches.

Yes. Seed, world size and difficulty are panel fields; set them before the first start and the server generates the world with those values. Any seed Terraria accepts works, including the 1.4.5 secret seeds. To use a world you already have, upload the .wld file to the worlds folder instead.
