SSH is a feature that allows you to log into the server terminal (Using a client such as PuTTY or the *nix `ssh` command) and allows you to start, stop, and manage your server over the highly secure SSH protocol--the same method used by professional webmasters and IT technicians all over the globe. It enables you to directly modify and change settings without having to worry about the insecurity of rcon or other such methods. Having an SSH-enabled hosting plan also gives you the ability to hop the server console and change settings that would otherwise be difficult to change via rcon. You can also edit your configs, make manual and precise changes to admin.dat and and other configuration files. SSH also grants you the ability to "sit" on the gameservers console and watch and interact with the players in the game (Via in-game chat) without even starting Tremulous!
Need more slots? Don't want SSH? No problem; just contact us and we'll be happy to negotiate. If you are an active, positively contributing member of the Tremulous community or the Mercenaries Guild, we generally give decent discounts in recognition of this fact.
By default, we set up your server using the MG tremded and Lakitu7's QVM. This is the de facto standard of Tremulous servers today, running servers such as Pure Tremulous and AA. This scalable and sturdy setup is also directly supported and maintained by two of the official Tremulous Developers, Lakitu7 and Benmachine. The default config also gives you direct access to the MG map repository, which gives your server instant access to the quickly-growing number of maps on our repository (600+). Map-download blues got you down? The map repository allows your clients to download maps and other necessary files with lighting-fast HTTP! No more downloading .pk3s at 10KB/s; the HTTP download framework allows speeds in excess of 400KB/s.T
Uncomfortable with Lakitu7's QVM? Want to host an Instagib server instead? Accounts with SSH access may utilize any compatible QVM on their server! Unfortunately, due to technical limitations, we do not allow custom tremdeds at this time.
