Necesse hosting.Your colony, always on.
A persistent shared world for you and your friends, hosted around the clock. Set the world, slots, password, and message of the day from the panel, with automatic backups and a full console. Starts with a free trial.
What the panel gives you
Persistent Shared World
Your colony world runs on the server 24/7, so the settlement and its progress stay live whether or not anyone is online. Everyone joins the same ongoing world.
Server Settings
Set the world save name, player slots, join password, and message of the day from the panel Startup settings. No editing launch arguments by hand.
Automatic Backups
The world save is backed up automatically and on demand. Restore the whole world from the panel if a session goes wrong, or download the save file.
Full Console
Live server output and command input in the browser, with player join and leave events easy to read. No SSH needed for routine admin.
File Manager
Browse and edit your server files directly in the browser, and upload or download the world save without FTP.
Health Monitor
Watches the server and restarts it automatically if the process exits unexpectedly, so a crash while you are away does not leave the colony offline.
Auto Update on Boot
Optionally re-check Steam for the latest Necesse build on every restart, so the server stays on the current version for your players.
Subuser Access
Add trusted friends or co-admins with specific panel permissions instead of sharing one password, and revoke access at any time.
Open or private.
No password, so anyone with the IP and port can join your shared world. Good for a public community server or a group that swaps the address between friends.
Set a join password from the panel so only people you share it with can connect. The rest of the world runs exactly the same, just gated at the door.
One world, running around the clock.
The server installs from Steam, loads your named world, and keeps it running so your colony and settlers carry on between sessions. Set it up once from the panel and share the connect details.
- Names and loads your shared world on first boot
- Runs 24/7 so progress persists between sessions
- Player slots, password, and MOTD set from the panel

Frequently asked questions
What is a Necesse dedicated server?
A Necesse dedicated server hosts one shared world that runs on its own, so you and your friends join the same ongoing colony whether or not the person who created it is online. We run it around the clock, keep the world save backed up, and give you a panel to manage it from any browser.
How many players can my Necesse server support?
Player capacity is set by your plan's RAM and the player-slots value you choose in the panel. Necesse is a light Java server, so a small always-on server comfortably keeps a co-op group's world running. Our Starter plan (2 GB RAM) suits a small group; Standard (3 GB) and Pro (4 GB) add headroom for larger parties and bigger explored worlds.
Can I set a password on my Necesse server?
Yes. Set a join password from the panel Startup settings and only people you share it with can connect. Leave it blank for an open co-op world. The world name, player slots, and message of the day are set the same way, and changes apply on the next restart.
Are my world saves backed up?
Yes. The world save is backed up automatically and on demand. If a session goes wrong you can restore the whole world from the panel, or download the save file to keep your own copy.
Is there a free trial for Necesse?
Yes. You can try the full panel with a live Necesse server for 48 hours, with no credit card required. The server pauses when the trial ends and your data is kept so you can continue later.
Where are your Necesse servers located?
Our servers run on Hetzner hardware in Germany, OVH in London, and OVH in Canada, giving you UK, EU and Canada locations with low latency across all three. Zeros Host is a UK-registered company and all prices are in GBP.
