Reserve

Warning: The API documentation here is for Managed Game Server Hosting (Clanforge). If you’re using Game Server Hosting (Multiplay), refer to the Game Server API documentation.

Reserve a game server specified by <serverid> on the machine specified by <machineid>.

Unlike allocations, you must reserve game servers from the dedicated game server when a player joins or the game server is in an active state. Both the machine ID and server ID are generated on Clanforge and passed through to the game server.
