How many players can drive along?

Officially, Convoy mode supports up to 8 players. There are mods/configs that can increase this, but 8 is stable.

Do I need the same DLCs?

Not necessarily, but if the host (server) drives through a DLC area, players without DLC cannot go there.

How do I install mods?

You must edit `server_packages.sii` and `server_packages.dat` or specify the Workshop IDs in the config. All players need the same mods.

Yes, AI traffic is synchronized.

How do I find my server?

Search under 'Convoys' in the game. You can filter by name.

How do I become admin?

You cannot log in directly as admin in the game like in shooters, but you have access to the server console.

Does the server support TruckersMP?

No, TruckersMP is a separate mod with its own servers. This is for the official SCS Convoy mode.

How much RAM do I need?

4-6 GB are recommended, especially with mods.

Can I upload savegames?

The server does not use a 'savegame' in the classic sense, it hosts the session. Your profile remains local.

Yes, via CB radio in the game (Key X).

How do I change the server name?

In `server_config.sii` under `lobby_name`.

You can simply rejoin the convoy. Your truck will be reset or you load an autosave.

Can we drive jobs together?

Yes, you can accept the same job and drive together.

Are there mods for more players?

There are experimental config changes (`max_players`), but this can lead to instability.

Where are the servers located?

We have servers in Germany and in USA (Salt Lake City).

How do I update the server?

A server update occurs automatically as soon as a new version is available and you start the server.

Can I change mods while driving?

No, the server must be restarted for that.

Is there weather sync?

Yes, weather and time are synchronized.

Can I add my own radio stations?

That is client-side (`live_streams.sii`), not server-side.

Customers can set up manual or automatic backups for a minimal fee.

Frequently Asked Questions about ATS Servers

American Truck Simulator Server: Together on the Highway

American Truck Simulator (ATS) lets you steer huge trucks through the breathtaking landscapes of the USA. With Convoy mode, you can finally officially drive with friends. A dedicated server from RespawnHost ensures that your session is always available without one of you having to host.

Why rent an ATS server at RespawnHost?

Convoy mode is great, but if the host goes offline, the ride ends. With a dedicated server, the world keeps running. You can join anytime, deliver cargo, and form convoys together. Our servers offer enough RAM for mods that expand the experience.

We support the official Dedicated Server for ATS. This means full compatibility with the game and easy configuration via config files. Whether vanilla or with Workshop mods - we get you on the road.

Features for Truckers

Convoy Mode: Official multiplayer for up to 8 players (configurable)
Mod Support: Use Workshop Mods in multiplayer (Client & Server must match)
Password Protection: Keep your convoy private
Traffic Sync: Synchronized AI traffic for everyone
DDoS Protection: No interruptions on the route
SFTP Access: Full control over `server_config.sii`

With our Pay-Per-Use model, you only pay when you actually drive. Perfect for shipping companies that drive together in the evening.

Fairness through Pay-Per-Use

Why pay for a server that stands empty? At RespawnHost, you only pay for the active time. Start the server for the convoy and stop it afterwards. So you save money.

Full transparency: You see exactly what the server costs. No hidden fees. You have full control.
