# Server Manager Application

Now you have built for Dedicated Server, great job! If you haven't yet and are just starting the project, return when you have built a dedicated server.

If you haven't installed Server Manager yet, follow "Step 1—Setup." Then, open the application and go to the Settings tab.&#x20;

* **Application Name**: You must provide a unique name for your server manager. This should be something like Virginia 1, California 1, or some naming system so that you and our clients know what servers they are connecting to; if you use the region selector, they will see these names.
* **Region**: You must provide the correct region; for testing, it doesn't matter too much, but in the live stage, you should fill this out appropriately.
* **Max Dedicated Servers:** This is if you want a certain amount of dedicated servers open at a time for each server, or you can set it to 0 to have the Server Manager automatically throttle and optimize the servers.
* **Status Toggle:** Switching it off will stop the server from creating additional servers if you notice something is broken and want to do maintenance.

Now, for Map List, this is the most important because no server will start up without this. You will then click the plus sign, navigate to the Dedicated Server folder, and select your "YourProjectName.exe". Then, a prompt will pop up after you've chosen; now, if you follow Step 1, you will remember about that map list; now, that map list will need to match the one on the Server Manager application.
