Bungeecord is a server configuration addon, allowing you to connect two or more servers and giving you the ability to travel between those servers via in-game commands without having to disconnect from the server. In this guide, I will show you the basics of how to configure your own basic Bungeecord server network and connect to it.
The first step is to go to Scalacube.com and log in to your account.
Once logged in, go to "Servers" and click on "Manage server".
We are now at the game server page, for this video we will be installing 3 Spigot 1.16.4 servers and 1 Bungeecord 1.16.4 server.
The first step is to add your main servers, ours are going to be a Hub, Gameserver1, and Gameserver2. Servers can be added by clicking on "Install a game server".
Once your main servers are added, the next step is to install a Bungeecord server, make sure it is the same version as your main servers are.
When at the Bungeecord installation screen, select the three servers you made and click on "Add".
Tick the box for "Main(Lobby)" to select which one will be your main hub users initially connect to.
Copy "server-ip=127.0.0.1" and "online-mode=false" from the red text for the next step.
Once your configuration options are verified, click on "Install" and wait for the process to finish.
Next, we will need to add those two lines that we copied on the Bungeecord installation screen, and add them to the end of our server.properties file for every server except the Bungeecord one.
This can be done by clicking on "Manage"
Next, click on "Settings" on the left tab.
Locate server.properties and click on "Change".
Paste the two lines at the end of the file and click on "Save".
Do this for the rest of your servers except the Bungeecord server. In this case, we would need to add it for Hub, Gameserver1, and Gameserver2.
Once the lines are added, start all of your servers.
Copy your Bungeecord server IP address and open up Minecraft and connect to the server.
You are now connected to your Bungeecord network.
To travel between your servers, type in /server followed by one of the servers you added. They can be scrolled through by using the TAB button.
Congratulations! You now know How to make a Bungeecord server.
