Allocs Server Fixes

Allocs Server Fixes is a collection of mod addons for 7 Days to Die that enables advanced functionality, including a custom API that allows Takaro to communicate with your server. Takaro requires Allocs Server Fixes to function with 7 Days to Die servers.

Prerequisites

Before installing Allocs Server Fixes, ensure your server has these TFP (The Fun Pimps) mods installed. These typically come pre-installed with the server:

  • TFP_CommandExtensions
  • TFP_MapRendering
  • TFP_WebServer

Installation

Step 1: Download Allocs Server Fixes

Download the latest version from the official source:

https://7dtd.illy.bz/wiki/Server%20fixes

Step 2: Extract the Files

The download comes as a compressed archive. Extract through the TAR and GZ files until you locate the Mods folder containing:

  • Allocs_CommandExtensions/
  • Allocs_CommonFunc/
  • Allocs_WebAndMapRendering/

Step 3: Install the Mods

Copy the extracted Mods folder contents to your 7 Days to Die server installation directory. The final structure should look like:

<7DTD Server Directory>/
└── Mods/
├── Allocs_CommandExtensions/
│ ├── ModInfo.xml
│ └── *.dll
├── Allocs_CommonFunc/
│ ├── ModInfo.xml
│ └── *.dll
└── Allocs_WebAndMapRendering/
├── ModInfo.xml
└── *.dll
Common Installation Mistake

Make sure you don't create a nested Mods/Mods/ folder structure. The mod folders should be directly inside the Mods directory, not in a subfolder.

Step 4: Configure Your Server

Open your serverconfig.xml file and verify these settings are enabled:

<property name="WebDashboardEnabled" value="true"/>
<property name="WebDashboardPort" value="8084"/>
<property name="EnableMapRendering" value="true"/>

Note the WebDashboardPort value - this is the port you'll use to access the Allocs web interface and API.

Step 5: Restart Your Server

Restart your 7 Days to Die server for the changes to take effect.

Verifying Installation

After restarting, verify the installation by browsing to:

http://<your-server-ip>:<WebDashboardPort>/legacymap

For example: http://192.168.1.100:8084/legacymap

If you see a login page, the installation was successful.

You can also use the version command in your server console to confirm the mods are loaded. See Checking Installed Mods for details.

Permissions

Permissions are configured in the serveradmin.xml file located in your savegames folder. You can define which API endpoints are accessible and at what permission level.

Key permission modules include:

ModuleDescription
web.mapInteractive map viewing
webapi.getlandclaimsView land claim locations
webapi.gethostilelocationView zombie locations
webapi.getanimalslocationView animal locations
webapi.getplayerslocationView player positions

Permission levels range from 0 (full admin access) to higher numbers for more restricted access.

PVP Server Considerations

For PVP servers, carefully restrict access to location-based permissions like webapi.getlandclaims and webapi.getplayerslocation. Exposing this information can significantly impact gameplay balance.
