One additional question tho: How do you manage stopping/rebooting this automatically?
I've tried to do it using Signals, however I can't get it to work properly, as the program will exit without saving the game... I also tried it using rcon, but there appears to be no way to instantly shut down the server, the minimum waiting time is a minute, which is absolutely not what I want.
In my current systemd service file (which does not save before stopping) I use this:
ExecStop=kill -INT $(ps aux | grep 'Z:\\home\\vrising\\vrising_files\\VRisingServer.exe -log' | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}') && sleep 8
this solution works great with many dedicated servers (for example, AzerothCore WoW, Minecraft bedrock and java editions, Valheim) because game clients allow use domain name as address of server. V Rising forbid this and allow use only ip address.
From there you'll need to figure out whether you need to ask your ISP for a static IP (usually a small fee per month on your bill if they do provide such services), or if your dynamic IP changes very rarely you can just register that IP in the hostname services above and keep an eye out to change it if needed. This is what I did for a very long time, my 'dynamic' IP address from my cable ISP provider changed maybe twice in multiple years.
how i can use server's domain name in direct connection? i do not have static ip address, but have dinamyc DNS.
I see it now in the requirements section on their website - x64 based NAS required. I got lucky that DS918 has an AMD chip which is x86_64, the RealTek one in the 418 doesn't meet that requirement.
Regarding backups, you mention having a synology - check out the 'Active Backup for Business' package - it's free. It does whole VM backups on a schedule you want, retention you want, etc. Great stuff :) I haven't had need of any restores yet but I just went to look at my settings and noticed that it has 208 versions of my ARK server from the past two years and it only takes up 136gb of disk space on the storage unit.
I keep regular interval saves of my ARK stuff any time it's running because if a particular friend who will not be named pulls an absolute disaster down on our heads I don't have to worry about restoring a whole VM, but it's a nice additional safety net to have - both for gaming and utility VM's in the ESX environment.
