Active build configuration

Understand how active build configurations determine which executable your servers run.
Read time 1 minuteLast updated a month ago
Allocations drive Multiplay Hosting fleets by propagating configuration changes to servers as they’re necessary to fulfill player demand. One such configuration is the active build configuration. A matchmaker controls servers' active build configuration in a typical production environment by requesting servers to meet player needs. But it’s also possible to manually allocate a server with a build configuration. The simplest ways to change the active build configuration of a server are to:
  1. Use the Allocations API to allocate the server with the build configuration you want to run.
  2. Create a test allocation with the build configuration.
