Unturned Documentation

Welcome to the official documentation for Unturned’s modding and server hosting features! To navigate, use the table of contents in the sidebar or the search function in the top-left corner.

Upcoming Features

You can find modding features under consideration on this Trello board: Unturned Roadmap. The cards on the board aren’t ordered in any particular way. i.e., they do not dictate the order of updates.

Miscellaneous requests and tasks that may pop up take priority over the roadmap, so it may go a while between progress updates. Several high-priority ideas that don’t yet have a solid plan, like a crafting revamp, are not listed on the board.

Legacy Tutorials

Our earliest modding documentation was available through Steam Guides. Although most of these guides have been superseded by our documentation here, some still contain useful information about Unity setup that we have yet to bring over. The useful guides are:

• Items: Most of the sub-sections about Unity setup are still relevant.

• Vehicles: Information about Unity setup.

• Objects: Information about Unity setup.

• Misc. Assets: Unity setup for animals, effects, and resources.

• Maps: Explaining various features.

• Localization

• Creating 3rd-party Modules: Not to be confused with mods or plugins.

• Uploading Mods to the Steam Workshop

• Upgrading from Unity 5 LTS to Unity 2017 LTS: Only relevant for very old mods, but lists the important changes between those two versions.

There are several official video tutorials available, but many of these have gradually become outdated. They do not accurately represent the current modding features available, or may contain incorrect information, but are listed here for completeness:

• Hosting a Dedicated Server on Windows

• Uploading Skins to the Curated Workshop

• Creating Custom Songs

• Quick Overview of First Version of Foliage Upgrade

• Devkit 101 + Landscapes Overview

• Spawn Tables

• Building Models

If you refer to a video tutorial (official or otherwise), we recommend double-checking the information with our written documentation when possible.
