# Increase the number of slots on ETS2

{% hint style="warning" %}
The “convoy slots” change is done **server-side** and **client-side**.\
Otherwise, players will not see the server.
{% endhint %}

### Objective

Take your ETS2 server beyond 8 players (e.g. 128).

### Step-by-step guide

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Stop the server**

Stop the server from the dashboard.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Server side: increase max\_players**

In the **FTP**, open the file `.local/share/Euro Truck Simulator 2/server_config.sii`, then edit:

```sii
max_players: 8
```

to:

```sii
max_players: 128
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Client side: increase g\_max\_convoy\_size**

Make sure that **the game is closed** on each PC.

On Windows:

1. `Windows + R`
2. Enter:

```
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2
```

Open `config.cfg`.

Search for `uset g_max_convoy_size`.

Set the same value as the server:

```cfg
uset g_max_convoy_size "128"
```

Save, then restart the game.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Restart and test**

Restart the server.

Perform a connection test with a modified client.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Common issues

* **The server does not appear** : `g_max_convoy_size` remained at `8` client-side.
* **Some players see it, others do not** : not all clients are modified.

### FAQ

#### Do all players have to make the change?

Yes.\
Each player must modify their `config.cfg`.
