How do you set up Ylands Exploration DLC on rented dedicated servers?

Bought the DLC to run on a dedicated server but can't find a way to set up the server for the DLC. Can anyone explain how to do that?

TIA!

Step 1: Open Exploration and sail to a new map (sail to the edge and click a different island on the region map). Keep doing this until you find a map you want to put on a server. Remember what the map name is and the biome type.

Step 2: Exit to the main menu and click on "Hosting." 

Click on "My Servers" near the top right.

Step 3: Click on "Add Game or Yland" in the lower left corner. (You might have to click on the server in the list first.)

It will show a list of maps you can add. Click on the map you wanted from earlier. You will get this confirmation:

Step 4: Within Exploration, you can travel to the edge of the map, and then go to the correct biome for your map. Click on any purple question mark.

You now have a server that any player can host.

Really detailed set of steps. Thank you.

One question tho, is the 'server' that is being used a BI server? Or can it be a rented server from another game hosting company?

I did instructions for a rented BI server.

I am not entirely sure how the Nitrado servers work ? @Nikki Severin can you put together a tutorial for that?

Hi there! 

Technically all the servers under the "dedicated server" tab are Nitrado servers  

@sundoode1 you would like to use an entirely different option?

? But what about the ones where you pay Nitrado directly?
