Cross-ARK Configuration for ARK Survival Evolved

Rent now your own prepaid ARK: Survival Evolved Server at nitrado.net

Note:IN ORDER TO ENABLE CROSS ARK, YOU MUST HAVE MORE THAN 1 SERVER

In this guide, you will learn how to configure your Nitrado servers to run on Cross-ARK and to travel between them.

Please take into consideration that these conditions have to be met:

• The servers must have a different name. 
• The servers must not have a server password.
• The servers must be in the same location.
• The servers must have the same cluster-ID, we recommend using The Island or The center to generate the cluster-ID.
• We recommend that you disable the restrictions on the Cross Ark settings.

Setting up your Servers

For Cross ARK you will need a Nitrado server for each map you want to use. This means: if you want to use two maps you will need to have two servers.

Note:You cannot use a password with a clustered server (this will cause errors)

• Navigate to the web interface of your server's
• With each server Go to Settings>General
  • Choose the Map you want to use on this server
  • Save Changes
• Then with each server Go to Settings>Cross ARK
  
  • Enable Cross ARK on all servers
  • Generate Cluster ID on the main server
    

---

• Add The same Cluster ID to your other servers
  
  • (All servers must have the same Cluster ID)
  • (You can NOT enter your own ID. One must be generated)

---

• Make sure all "Restrictions" are disabled
  
• Save Changes
• Restart your servers for changes to take effect

Traveling to another ARK in your Cluster

• Log in to one of your servers
• Travel to a beacon
• Open the beacon and select "Travel to another Server"
  
• Upon opening the beacon you should see your servers available for transfer.
  
• Click "Join W/Survivor" to Transfer
• You will then be loaded into the selected server and will be prompted for a place to spawn.
