VPN detection

Keep VPN and proxy connections off a server.

Updated Oct 15, 2026

When it is on, every connecting player's address is checked for VPNs, proxies, Tor and data centres. Flagged players are kicked with your message.

Turn it on

  1. 1

    Open the server and select Settings.

  2. 2

    In VPN Detection, turn it on.

  3. 3

    Set the risk threshold. The default is 60. Higher values give fewer false alarms.

  4. 4

    Write the kick message.

  5. 5

    Choose whether whitelisted players skip the check.

  6. 6

    Save.

Exceptions

  • Excluded IPs: addresses that are never flagged.
  • Excluded Steam IDs: players who are never checked, without giving them whitelist access.

If a check cannot finish, the player is allowed in rather than wrongly kicked. VPN detection needs the feature in your organization's access.
