📚 How to Use TF2-QuickServer

This section explains how to interact with TF2-QuickServer through Discord commands.

📦 Available Commands:

  • /set-user-data <steamId>
  • /create-server <region>
  • /get-my-servers
  • /status
  • /terminate-servers

📌 /set-user-data

Use this command once to register your Steam ID with the bot.

Parameter:

  • steamId → Enter your Steam ID in the format STEAM_0_000000.

🔍 You can find your Steam ID here: https://steamid.io/

🔒 This Steam ID will be automatically associated with any servers you create, giving you Sourcemod admin access on them.

📌 /create-server

Use this command to create a new TF2 server.

Parameter:

  • region → Choose one of the available server regions.

📝 After sending the command, the bot will prompt you to select a Variant. The available variant options may vary depending on which Discord guild (server) you're in.

Important: Before using this command, you must register your Steam ID using /set-user-data. This ensures you have !admin privileges on your server.

⏳ Server creation typically takes about 3 minutes.

Once the server is ready, the bot will reply with:

  • Connection IP
  • RCON Password
  • SourceTV link

📌 /get-my-servers

Use this command to retrieve all your active server details if you've lost the original message.

No parameters required.

💡 This command displays:

  • Connection IP and Port
  • Server Password
  • RCON Address and Password
  • SourceTV IP and Password
  • Server Status (ready, pending, or terminating)

🔒 The response is sent as an ephemeral message (only visible to you) to protect your server credentials.

⚠️ Note: Connection details are only available for servers with status "ready". Pending servers will show a message indicating details will be available once ready.

📌 /status

Use this command to view the overall status of all TF2-QuickServer instances across all regions.

No parameters required.

📊 This command displays a table showing:

  • Region names
  • Number of running servers (✅ ready)
  • Number of servers being created (⏳ pending)
  • Number of servers being terminated (🔴 terminating)

💡 Useful for checking server availability and current load across all regions before creating a new server.

🔒 The response is sent as an ephemeral message (only visible to you).

📌 /terminate-servers

Use this command to manually delete the TF2 server you created.

🔊 Servers are automatically deleted if they remain empty for 10 minutes, but it’s highly recommended to terminate them manually when you’re done to avoid AFK players preventing automatic shutdown.
