  Requirements

  • []Windows operating system

    []A valid Windrose Dedicated Server installation, or use Captain's Console to install one

    []Internet connection if you want to install or update the server through SteamCMD

    []Enough permissions to read and write your Windrose server files

    []It is recommended to run the app on the same machine that hosts the server, or on a machine with direct access to the server files

    Why use it

    Captain's Console is meant to reduce the repeated pain points of hosting a Windrose server:

    • []manual config editing

      []hunting for the right server files

      []forgetting backup steps

      []switching between tools for worlds, logs, and mods

      []repeating first-time setup steps manually

      Best for

      • []private server owners

        []co-op groups

        []community hosts

        []admins who want a desktop control panel instead of manual file management

        Important notes

        • []It is still safest to stop the server before making config changes.

          []Some gameplay systems are still limited by what Windrose officially exposes in its server files.

        • This tool helps manage official server files more easily; it does not replace the game's own dedicated server structure.

          Release status

          This is an early public release of Captain's Console.

          It is already useful for real server management and improvements will happen based on community feedback and additional server settings provided by the developers of Windrose.
