How to Join a Squad Server
Connect to your Squad server through the in-game browser or by direct IP.
---
1. Find Your Server Address
1. Open your server in the panel and look at the Address card on the right of the Console tab (for example 169.58.71.35:25565).
2. The part before the colon is the IP; the part after is the Port. Always use these — never Squad's default port, because every server gets its own assigned port.

2. Join via the Server Browser (recommended)
1. Launch Squad. 2. Open the Server Browser and switch to the Custom tab. 3. Type your server name in the search bar, select it, and click Join.
> A new server shows up in the Custom tab automatically once it finishes starting. To also appear in the official server list, the server needs a free Offworld license — see Squad Server Visibility & Listing.
