Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to install anything besides FalkMC Panel?

Just Java 21 or higher. The panel detects it automatically and shows a download link if it's missing. Everything else, the server jar, config files and folder structure is handled by the panel.

Where are my servers stored?

In Documents\FalkMC\servers. Each server gets its own folder with the world, config and logs.

Can I run multiple servers at once?

Yes, as long as each server uses a different port. Two servers can't share the same port, so set a unique port per server in its Settings. Beyond that, the only limit is your PC's resources.

How do my friends connect to my server?

They connect using your public IP and port, both shown on each server card. For players outside your home network, you'll need to forward that port on your router.

How do I run a command on my server?

Go to the Console page, select your server from the dropdown, and type the command into the input at the bottom. Press Enter or click Send. The command is sent directly to the running server.

If the server isn't running, the input is disabled — start it from the Servers page first.

What's the difference between Vanilla and Paper?

Vanilla is the official Minecraft server, closest to the base game. Paper is a performance-optimised fork that also supports plugins. Both are supported in FalkMC Panel.

What happens to my servers when I close the panel?

Running servers are shut down automatically when you close FalkMC Panel, so you never end up with Java processes running in the background.

Will this work on Linux or macOS?

No, the panel is built specifically for Windows 10 and 11. However if there is demand then a macOS version might come.

I found a bug, how do I report it?

Join the Discord and post in the bug-report channel with steps to reproduce, screenshots and any error messages.
