# Ark Survival Ascended Nitrado

> This page explains how to use Tip4Serv **only** with **Nitrado** servers that **do not** support plugins. You will be able to:
>
> * Run **RCON** commands.
> * Offer **in‑game** rewards via a mod (items/dinos/cryo).

***

### 1) Prerequisites

* A **Nitrado** server for **ARK: Survival Ascended**.
* **RCON enabled** and reachable (IP/Port/Password). In the Nitrado panel: enable RCON, set a password, then restart your server.
* [**Browser button & QR code** mod](https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/tip4serv) installed on your server to redirect players to your shop **with their EOSID**.
* [**ASA Bot Companion** mod](https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/asa-bot-companion) or [**Helena** mod](https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/helena-bot-companion) installed on your server to spawn items/dinos/cryo with RCON commands.

***

### 2) Add your server in Tip4Serv (RCON mode)

1. Open **Tip4Serv > Dashboard > My Servers** and **add** your ARK SA server.
2. **Connection method:** choose **RCON**.
3. Enter your **IP, RCON Port and RCON Password** (from your Nitrado panel).
4. Save. Tip4Serv will test the RCON connection.

> ✅ Once connected, you can create **products** that send **RCON commands** to your server after purchase.

***

### 3) Spawn dinos, items & cryo

Since Nitrado does not support server plugins, mods provide a dedicated **ScriptCommand** system instead.\
This allows Tip4Serv to automatically deliver items and dinos by targeting a player’s EOS ID.

{% hint style="info" %}
Always include the `{eosid}` placeholder in your command — Tip4Serv will dynamically replace it with the buyer’s actual EOSID at runtime.
{% endhint %}

You can easily generate the correct syntax using the **ASA Bot Command Builder**:

* [Item Command Builder](https://asa-bot.info/#/tools/spawnItem)
* [Dino Command Builder](https://asa-bot.info/#/tools/spawnDino)
