Requirements

screen
SteamCMD runtime libraries (lib32gcc-s1, lib32stdc++6)
Python packages from requirements.txt

Quick Start

Create the server:

alphagsm myenshroud create enshrouded

Run setup:

alphagsm myenshroud setup

Start it:

alphagsm myenshroud start

Check it:

alphagsm myenshroud status

Stop it:

alphagsm myenshroud stop

Setup Details

Setup configures:

the game port (default 15637)
the query port in enshrouded_server.json (default 15637)
the server name in enshrouded_server.json
the install directory
SteamCMD downloads the server files

Useful Commands

alphagsm myenshroud update
alphagsm myenshroud backup

Notes

Module name: enshrouded
Default game port: 15637
Default query port: 15637

Server variables

After create enshrouded, inspect or change these with set:

alphagsm myserver set --list
alphagsm myserver set KEY --describe
alphagsm myserver set KEY VALUE

This module does not declare schema-backed keys. set --list after create is still the live source of truth.

Developer Notes

Run File

Executable: enshrouded_server.exe
Location: <install_dir>/enshrouded_server.exe
Engine: Custom (SteamCMD)
SteamCMD App ID: 2278520

Server Configuration

Config file: enshrouded_server.json
Managed keys: queryport, servername
Notes: enshrouded_server.json is authoritative for queryPort and name. AlphaGSM preserves unrelated generated settings and still supplies the save-name launch argument. Managed values may be set before setup; AlphaGSM writes them to the JSON file once the install directory exists.
