What is a Dedicated Condo

Dedicated Condos is a server that allows you to host your own condo, or a community condo without having to keep the game running. Dedicated Condos also allow other players to use their own inventory and contribute to the condo!

Hosting a Dedicated Condo

This guide will cover how to start hosting your own Dedicated Condo.

You will have to have knowledge on forwarding ports to host a Dedicated Condo.

Dedicated Condos are supported on both Windows and Linux. This guide covers Windows. Linux guide can be found here: Linux Dedicated Guide

Windows

First, download the Tower Unite Dedicated Server tool on Steam. If you own Tower Unite, you will see this in your Steam library automatically.

Windows Launcher

We've made a helpful launcher for Windows users, called TowerServerGUI.exe. This launcher is the easiest way to get your Dedicated Condo up and running without having to edit/create various files by hand.

NOTE: You MUST launch the launcher outside of Steam. You can do this by right clicking on Tower Unite Dedicated Server > Manage > Browse local files

This launcher handles creating the needed configurations files, along with an condo data importer.

The launcher saves all your server info (name, settings) each time you use it.

Ports to Forward

You will need to open these ports, otherwise players cannot join your condo:

Login Tokens

To list your Dedicated Condo on the Condo server list, you will need a Steam Login Token and a Tower Login Token. These tokens assign a static Steam ID for your Dedicated Condo and pair your Condo with your own Steam account.

You will need a Steam Login Token and register your game server to your Steam account.

You will need a Tower Login Token to connect to our condo list.

Steam Login Token

To get a Steam Login Token, complete this form: https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers

Use 394690 as the App ID.

Tower Login Token

To get a Tower Login Token complete this form: https://moderation.towerunite.com/manage_game_servers.php

Both the Steam Login Token and Tower Login Token are required!

Once you have both tokens, place the Login Tokens into the Windows Launcher.

Loading Condo Data

To load your Condo data into your Dedicated Condo, you must first export your condo data from Tower Unite into a .map format.

Exporting From Condo In-game

• Using the Export feature in the Condo scoreboard under Saves > Export Condo.

  This will export the condo to a .map format in your Tower Unite/Workshop/Condo Exports/ folder.

• or you can manually rename a CondoData file in your Steam Cloud folder to include the .map extension

Import Using the Launcher

The launcher (Windows only) comes with an Import Condo feature, which will copy your exported condo file into the correct folder for the dedicated condo server automatically.

Moderation

Adding Admins

Using the Launcher, you can add admins by clicking on Admins at the bottom right.

You will need to add your own Steam ID to this admin list.

You can add as many admins as you'd like by adding a new line for each admin.

Once you have admin, you can assign per-player permissions within the condo server.

If you'd like to give other players less permissions, then see Per-Player Permissions.

Per-Player Permissions

Once you have given yourself admin, you can adjust per-player permission within the condo scoreboard. From the condo scoreboard, go to Settings > Player Permissions and toggle permissions per-player. This is automatically saved to a file.

Moderator Tag

You can assign the Moderator Tag permission to show a condo moderator tag on players that you have given moderator permissions for other players to see.

Ban List

You can ban players within the scoreboard menu in-game, but you can also ban them by updating the TowerBans.ini file.

All player bans are stored in Tower\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\TowerBans.ini

Dedicated Condos also connect to PixelTail's own moderation API.

Logs

When a player joins, leaves, chats, or adjusts condo permissions, we log these actions to Tower/TowerServer_Chat.txt A log message will contain timestamp, player name (at the time), steam ID, and chat message or action.

Example:

09/06/2025 23:01:02 | MacDGuy (76561197972354223): JOINED THE SERVER

Mature Servers

Yes, you can host 18+ servers. In order to do this, you must add "18+" to your condo title. The Windows Launcher has a checkbox that adds this to your condo title for you.

Again, you must follow our rules and label your condo title with the keyword "18+". If you host mature content without this tag, your condo will be delisted.

Condo Content Rules / Prohibited Content

You must follow our rules while hosting any content.

Advanced Configuration

Windows Batch File

For advanced users, the StartTowerCondo.bat contains:

TowerServer.exe /Game/Maps/C_Condo -log -Port=7777 -nosteamclient -QueryPort=27016

Parameters

The following parameters can be passed into the server executable using a batch file on startup.

Overriding game server port

-Port=7778

Overriding Steam master server port

We recommend not using port 27015 or it will not allow you to play the game on the same machine.

QueryPort=27016

Binding to a specific server IP address

-MULTIHOME=public-ip-here

e.g. -MULTIHOME=8.8.8.8

Required: Runs the server on the same machine as the game client

-nosteamclient

Custom TowerServer.ini file, useful for multiple servers on one machine

-TowerServerINI=CustomTowerServer.ini

Depending on which platform you're using, the file will be loaded from a specific directory.

Manually Importing Condos To Dedicated

First, export your condo data.

You will need to copy exported .map file into the Dedicated Condo's Tower/Condos/ folder.

You need to create a folder for each Condo (i.e. Condos/C_Condo/) inside Tower folder.

The .map must be named the same as the condo map you will be loading (i.e. C_Condo.map or C_Studio.map).

The full path should look like:

Tower/Condos/C_Condo/C_Condo.map

or

Tower/Condos/C_Studio/C_Studio.map
