Sizing
Which plan fits your Terraria server?
Our estimate of the memory a Terraria server uses, and the smallest plan that covers it. Heavy modpacks can need double.
Terraria servers are limited by CPU long before memory. Mini comfortably hosts small and medium groups; big tModLoader packs prefer Lite or Plus.
| Players | Vanilla | Lightly modded |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | ≈ 1.2 GB · Mini | ≈ 1.8 GB · Mini |
| 8 | ≈ 1.4 GB · Mini | ≈ 2.1 GB · Lite |
| 16 | ≈ 1.8 GB · Lite | ≈ 2.7 GB · Lite |
| 32 | ≈ 2.6 GB · Plus | ≈ 3.9 GB · Plus |
Networking
Terraria ports.
The game's default ports are below. Your server gets its own ports, already open, and its address shows in your client area the moment it is built.
| Default port | Protocol | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| 7777 | TCP | Game port |
| 7878 | TCP | TShock REST API (optional) |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I play modded Terraria?
Yes. Run tModLoader, upload your mods and enable them. Players need the same mods.
How do I upload my world?
Upload your .wld file over SFTP or the file manager and set it as the world in startup settings.
Do I need a big plan?
No. Most Terraria servers run happily on Mini. Large tModLoader packs are the main reason to move up.
Can I upgrade or cancel later?
Yes. Upgrade in place without losing your files, and cancel any time from your client area. Longer billing cycles save up to 15%.
