Ah there's your problem. The in-game unofficial server list is terrible. It doesn't matter how you set it that thing will work one day and not work the next.

Have your players add the server IPs to their favourites list in Steam and it will show up in their favourites list in-game. I would not rely on the in-game server list to give you any sort of visibility.

Also, I'm still wondering how you're managing to smoothly run 10 servers on a single machine. I would never recommend going above 6 on even the best OVH setup.

which port should input in here:

If you managed to get 10 servers running. Then you should be able to fix one more.
There is no way anyone here can help you more than we have already done. Since the infrastructure is always different from an others server cluster.
and some host by them self and some use a hosting provider. I would suggest you contact the hosting provider if you are using one. This forum is not for this kind of questions.

Also, arkserver.net tracking has been borked for some time. My suspicion is they're trying to kill off their own server. They have fewer and fewer tracked servers each day due to this very issue. Use an alternate like toparkservers.

if you lazy like me just leave your firewall unconfigured mines been fine for 8 months lol @ ovh / sos also im curious do you run 10 servers on the same dedi lol, because i have 4 dedicated servers 32gb rams i7's and i run 2 servers each on them for the best possible performance.

Same here, But 3 Ark instances is maximum per server hardware imao

yeah 3 will work fine even could push it to 4 considering one of my servers i've been running over 8 months is only using 7-8gb ram and 20% cpu also set save times 5 mins apart of each other and providing you wipe each 8 months - 1.7 years.

We currently run 5 per machine. I didn't even think about setting save times 5 min apart, not sure how I'd go about that with ASM, but that's probably a good idea. I don't even know if the save interval is happening at the same time between all the servers or not.
