Evaluate CPU, memory, and storage options against the expected game workload.
Player load
How player count affects resources
Bot quota, spectators, and team layout matter alongside human slots; headcount alone is incomplete.
-
Single-core strength
Measure processor peaks and game-loop response during a busy session.
-
RAM
Track peak memory use together with growth headroom.
-
NVMe storage
Measure storage behaviour across saves, logs, and backups.
-
Mod and script density
Measure actual mod, plugin, and script workload separately from extension count.
-
World / map size
Track world size, active regions, and persistent-data growth together.
-
Player scenario
Evaluate concurrent-player distribution, activity, and content workload together.
Detailed planning notes
| Scenario | Resource effect | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Concurrent players | Bot quota, spectators, and team layout matter alongside human slots; headcount alone is incomplete. | Measure a busy session |
| Game activity | Co-op bot waves and dense combat differ from a PvP session with little AI; test the intended mode directly. | Repeat the peak scenario |
| World / save growth | Mod caches, maps, logs, and ban data expand disk use; manage content rotation with retention. | Track save and restore duration |

Capacity summary
Estimated CPU, memory, storage, and a suitable resource profile appear here.
Mod / plugin level
Mods, plugins, and additional content
Align mod.io packages, custom maps, and mutators with startup parameters, then inspect download and load logs after updates.
Mod compatibility can vary by game and server-software release.
Administration
Administration and server settings
Generate scenario, mode, bot quota, mutator, map cycle, token, and access settings from one source.
Installation and management
After deployment, manage Insurgency: Sandstorm processes, version changes, and settings that require restarts in controlled maintenance windows.
Backups
Back up Insurgency: Sandstorm saves, configuration, and additional-content data as separate restore points before changes.
File access
Limit file access to Insurgency: Sandstorm configuration, logs, and managed content directories; stop the relevant process before replacing active files.
Frequently asked questions
Insurgency: Sandstorm
How should I compare resources for co-op or PvP?
Define the scenario, bot quota and mutators first. Evaluate plans in a busy session of the intended mode rather than applying a low-AI PvP measurement to every co-op setup.
Is the number of human players enough for sizing?
Include bots, spectators and team structure in the intended session. Measure CPU, memory and networking together under that use; human connections do not represent the entire workload.
What should I verify when updating Mod.io content?
Check that packages match startup parameters and the chosen scenario. Test downloading, loading and joining, and confirm separately whether the resource plan includes content setup.
Does a growing mod cache mean I should upgrade?
Separate active-map requirements from old cache and logs. Compare storage if the retained files still exceed available space after retention is organised; do not mistake network latency for a disk-capacity issue.
What should a scenario profile record include?
Keep the scenario, mode, bot quota, mutators and map cycle with the corresponding startup settings. Protect tokens and access details, and test that the intended profile loads after changes.
