# Gettings Started

## Installation

BedWarsProxy is a plugin that can be installed on lobby/ hub servers. Do **not** install it on arena servers.

1. Copy the `BedWarsProxy.jar` in the plugins folder and restart your server.
2. Open config.yml and set your desired port that will be used to receive data from the arenas.\
   This **mustn't** be the same as the port from server.properties.
3. Still in config.yml, insert your database credentials to sync bed-wars statistics from arenas.
4. Restart the lobby server.
5. Go on each bed-wars arena and open `plugins/BedWars1058/config.yml`.\
   a. Here add the lobby server where you've installed BedWarsProxy, under `lobby-sockets`.\
   Like this: \ <img src="/files/-M2QV3NYz91SUQuXNLuh" alt="" data-size="original"> \
   The server IP and the port from *BedWarsProxy/config.yml*.\
   **This is not the server port.**\
   b. Still in this config, set the `server-id` to match the server from bungeecord's config.\
   c. Set `serverType` to BUNGEE.
6. Restart your arenas and enjoy.
