How To Add Steam Workshop Mods to Your Space Engineers Server

1. Log In to Your Panel


2. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

The Cybrancee panel dashboard with an arrow pointing to the Files tab.

3. Select the ‘config’ Folder

The server file manager showing the config folder.

4. Select the ‘Saves’ Folder

The Saves folder highlighted in the server file manager.

5. Select the ‘World’ Folder

The World folder highlighted inside the Saves directory.

6. Inside the ‘World’ Folder, Select the ‘Sandbox_config.sbc‘ File

The Sandbox_config.sbc file highlighted in the world folder.

7. Add the Mod IDs to the Config

Scroll through the file or use Ctrl + F to locate the <Mods> tag. If your server is unmodded, it will likely look like an empty list (<Mods /> or <Mods></Mods>).

To add a mod, you must insert a <ModItem> block between the <Mods> tags using the specific Steam Workshop ID number for that mod. Replace 123456789 with your actual mod ID:

<Mods>
    <ModItem FriendlyName="Optional Mod Name">
        <Name>123456789.sbm</Name>
        <PublishedFileId>123456789</PublishedFileId>
    </ModItem>
</Mods>

If you are adding multiple mods, simply stack the <ModItem> blocks one after another inside the main <Mods> section!
