Velocity setup on ServCity

Last updated on May 07, 2025

Want to set up a Velocity network on ServCity? You're in luck! We will show you exactly how to do it in this article.

‎

In this tutorial, we will use three servers with the following names:

  1. Proxy - The Velocity proxy server.

  2. Server-1 - Lobby server (for example).

  3. server-2 - Survival server (for example).

Then we will start by setting the servers that are not the Velocity proxy (Server-1 and Server-2) to private.

You can find this option in the Startup tab on the panel.

After this, go to the Velocity server (Proxy) and follow these steps:

  1. Go to the network tab and check the port

  2. Go to files and open velocity.toml.

  3. Search for bind and change the port to the port from network.

  4. Next up search for player-info-forwarding-mode and change this to modern.

  5. Now you will have to get the ip and port from (Server-1 and Server-2)

  6. Back in the Proxy, We will add this in our velocity.toml config under the option [servers].

  7. Next we will change the [forced-hosts] to only lobby like this.

  8. Save your config!

This is everything that has to be done in the velocity.toml now we have to get the forwarding secret from the file this one can be found here in forwarding.secret.

Open this file and copy the forwarding secret code that's in there you will need this one in (Server-1 and Server-2).

Now we will move on to (Server-1) here you will have to do the following things:

  1. Go to Files and open server.properties and change online-mode to false.

  2. Go to the folder config and open paper-global.yml.

  3. Here you will have to find proxies and change the following things.

    • online-mode -> false

  4. Next you will have to find velocity and change the following things.

    1. enabled -> true

    2. online-mode -> true

    3. secret -> (Add the secret code from the proxy secret.forwarding)

  5. Repeat the steps from Server-1 on Server-2

If you would like to add additional servers to you proxy repeat the steps from Server-1 and add the servers on the Proxy in the velocity.toml config like this.
