Server Queue

Introduction

Sometimes when you click Start, your server doesn’t boot up right away. Instead, you’ll see a queue alert letting you know the node is at capacity and your server is waiting in line. This is completely normal during busy periods – it just means the node needs to free up some resources before your server can start.

How the Queue Works

Once your server enters the queue, the system automatically retries starting it every 60 seconds. It’ll keep trying for up to 30 attempts, so you don’t need to sit there clicking Start over and over. Just leave the page open and let it do its thing.

You don’t need to keep clicking Start. The system handles retries automatically – just wait for your turn.

Skipping the Queue

If you’d rather not wait, there are two ways to jump ahead:

• Premium plan – premium servers skip the queue entirely. Every time you click Start, your server boots immediately regardless of how busy the node is.
• Watch an ad – on the free plan, a Watch Ad button may appear during the queue if an ad is available to serve. Watch a short ad and your server will start right away.
