We host game servers.
So we built the tools to run them.
TeaTimeServers is a small group running community game servers from a self-hosted rack: ARK, Minecraft, Palworld, Zomboid, and whatever everyone is playing next. The things we make here are the tools we wanted for that rack, tidied up and shared.
Projects
What is finished and out in the world. More gets added as it stops being embarrassing.
AMP Server Control
A Stream Deck plugin for CubeCoders AMP. Live tiles for every game server, hold-to-confirm start, stop and restart, console commands, and pages with graphs and backups.
LiveProxmox & PBS Control
The same idea pointed at the hypervisors: live keys for Proxmox VE nodes and guests, Backup Server datastores and Datacenter Manager overviews, with pages that drill into a single VM or container.
LiveSSH Launcher
Every host in your SSH config becomes a Stream Deck key. Press one and a PowerShell window opens, already connecting, with your keys and jump hosts applied.
LivePi Deck
Linux monitoring on keys for every box you own: servers, containers and Raspberry Pis. Temperature, CPU, memory, disk, uptime, waiting updates, systemd services, reboot and commands of your own, over the hosts already in your SSH config. Nothing is installed on the machine.
4 live · 1 submittedDeck Pets
Virtual pets for your Stream Deck: five habitats that live across your keys. Fish Tank, Rodents, Reptiles, Ant Farm and Bugs & Friends. Simulation or Casual, your choice.
LiveMedia Server Deck
Plex, Jellyfin and Emby on keys: who is watching what, what is transcoding and why, library counts, scheduled tasks and restarts, for up to three servers. Nothing is installed on the server.
LiveDNS Deck
Pi-hole, AdGuard Home, Technitium and Blocky on keys: blocking on, off or paused with a countdown, queries, blocked, clients and the top blocked domain, for up to four servers. Nothing is installed on the server.
In testingFactorio Deck
Factorio on your Stream Deck with a companion mod: research and its queue, power and brownouts, alerts, trains, robots, items made per minute, logistic storage and science per minute, live from the game, plus save, pause, speed, remote view and screenshot keys.
LiveNMS Deck
No Man's Sky on your Stream Deck with a companion NMS.py mod: health, shield, hull and ship charges as keys or bars, the planet you are on and the system you are in, and a layout that turns to your Ship or On Foot page as you play, plus the game controls as keys.
LivePal Deck
Palworld on your Stream Deck with a companion UE4SS mod: your party Pals, bases and their workers, your own stats and an IV check of the Pal you aim at, live from the game, each with a page of full stats, plus the game controls as keys.
LiveRedline Deck
Forza Horizon 6 on your Stream Deck, live from the game's own Data Out telemetry with no mod: a shift light, speed, revs, tires, lap times and G-force, gauges on the dials, and keys that press your controls.
In testingExile Deck
Path of Exile 2 on your Stream Deck, read from the game's own log with no mod: zone, area level, session and map times, level-ups, deaths and the last whisper, plus skill, flask and chat keys.
LiveForeman Deck
Satisfactory on your Stream Deck, live from the Ficsit Remote Monitoring mod: power, batteries and fuses, production per minute, storage, trains and drones, and power switches on keys.
In testingColony Deck
RimWorld on your Stream Deck through its own small mod: game speed, colonists with mood and health, alerts, letters, research and resources, with keys that pause, draft and jump.
Submitted for approvalCommonwealth Deck
Fallout 4 on your Stream Deck, live from the game's own Pip-Boy app data: health, AP, limbs, favourites, Stimpaks, the radio, a map across your keys and power armor, and keys that press your controls.
Submitted for approvalWuWa Deck
Wuthering Waves on your Stream Deck, free: skills, team members and every Terminal screen as keys, your Convene pity on every banner, live, and new redemption codes.
LiveZomboid Deck
Project Zomboid live on your Stream Deck: health, moodles worst first, time and weather, your weapon, and the car you are driving. Build 42, with a mod on the Steam Workshop.
In testingValheim Deck
Your food timers counting down across the keys, health and stamina, Rested, your Forsaken power and your ship under sail.
PlannedElite Dangerous
Toggles that show what your ship is really doing: gear, scoop, lights and hardpoints, pips on a dial, fuel and jumps.
Liveunifi-allowlist
Self-service IP allow-listing for UniFi. Friends on dynamic IPs press one button to get back in, and the address it records is the one they are actually connecting from. A Cloudflare Worker, a LAN agent and an admin page, open source under MIT.
LiveNeverness to Everness
Free: all four characters, Redirect Skill, Ultimate and Arc Skill on keys, every menu one press away, and the photo keys, drawn like the game's own phone menu.
LiveWarframe
All twelve gear slots and all twelve emotes as keys instead of a wheel you hold and aim, abilities and Transference to hand, and the screens you reach for mid-mission. Every key prints the keyboard key it sends.
LiveARK: Survival Ascended
Every whistle on its own key instead of a row of punctuation you keep missing, emotes and quick chat lines that send themselves, thirty console commands on single presses, and the everyday keys where you can see them.
Security Van
A Project Zomboid Build 42 vehicle mod: a liveried Franklin Valuline cargo van, loaded with an installer's kit of tools, wire and radios.
Game profiles
Ready-made Stream Deck profiles for the games we actually play, starting with No Man's Sky: a folder for every part of the journey, built on the game's own controls.
You Are Lost
A co-op survival horror game for three to eight players, built in Unity. Something is out there with you, and the only real defence is the people you brought along.
TeaTime Game Chat Bridge
One conversation across every server we run. Chat typed in Minecraft reaches Palworld, Project Zomboid, V Rising and ARK, and all of it bridges to Discord, so the group stays together whether they are in a different game or not in one at all.
Biblically Accurate Castoroides
A Castoroides TLC mod for ARK: Survival Ascended. The giant beaver deserves better than it got, so this is a pass over its model, animations and kit to bring it up to the standard of the creatures around it.

Proxmox hosts, a CubeCoders AMP controller running a dozen game instances, backups, dashboards and monitoring.
Built for real use
Every tool here runs against our own servers first. If it breaks, it breaks for us before it breaks for you.
Independent
Not affiliated with the game studios or the software vendors our tools talk to. Just admins sharing what we made.
