Teeworlds Server Guides
Teeworlds dedicated server setup, autoexec.cfg reference, game modes (DM/TDM/CTF/LMS), map rotation, RCON administration, voting system, Linux hosting, and troubleshooting guides.
How to Set Up a Teeworlds Dedicated Server
Download the Teeworlds server binary from Steam (AppID 380840) or downloads.teeworlds.com, create autoexec.cfg, and run teeworlds_srv to host your first server.
Teeworlds Server Port Forwarding
Teeworlds requires only one port: UDP 8303. Open it on your OS firewall and router so the server appears in the public browser and players can connect.
Teeworlds autoexec.cfg Reference
Complete reference for Teeworlds autoexec.cfg — file location, syntax rules, and every server variable with its default value and description.
Teeworlds Game Modes
Teeworlds has four game modes: Deathmatch (dm), Team Deathmatch (tdm), Capture the Flag (ctf), and Last Man Standing (lms). Set the mode with sv_gametype and match it to the right maps.
Teeworlds Maps and Map Rotation
All official Teeworlds maps listed by mode, how to configure map rotation with sv_maprotation, and how to add custom maps to your server.
Teeworlds Server Admin Management
Set up RCON on your Teeworlds server, connect with F2 in-game, and use all server console commands to manage players, maps, bans, and more.
Teeworlds Server Voting Setup
Add custom vote options to your Teeworlds server using add_vote, let players vote yes/no with F3/F4 in-game, and configure vote-kick and vote-map permissions.
Running a Teeworlds Dedicated Server on Linux
Download the Teeworlds server binary on Linux, install required 32-bit libraries, configure autoexec.cfg, and set up a systemd service for automatic startup and crash recovery.

Fix common Teeworlds server problems: server not appearing in the browser, RCON disabled, players unable to join, wrong maps loading, and Linux binary crashes.
