How it works.

01

Quickstart

Download the app for your OS and make it executable:

$ chmod +x ./digger

Run it:

$ ./digger

A list of games appears. Use the arrow keys to pick yours and press Enter. An address shows up on the next screen — copy that and send it to whoever's connecting.

02

Keys

  • g — pick a game
  • a — add a custom port
  • d — remove the highlighted entry
  • t — change theme
  • q — quit
03

Supported games

Minecraft (Java + Bedrock), Valheim, Terraria, Factorio, 7 Days to Die, Project Zomboid, ARK, CS / Source. See the games page for the full list. Anything else, press a and enter the port yourself.

04

If it doesn’t work

It says “connecting…” and never moves on

Your network can't reach our server. Check whether you're on a firewalled wifi (work, school, hotel). Switch to your phone hotspot to test.

Friends connect but the game lags

Restart the app. You may land on a closer edge node next time.

The address changed after I restarted

Yes — addresses are short-lived. Send the new one.

Something else

File an issue at github. Include the bottom log of the app.
