Your cluster should behave like one world.
An ARK cluster is made up of separate server instances, each running its own map. Players move between them freely, but the state each server keeps about a tribe is its own.
The result is a cluster that does not behave as one unified environment. Tribe identity and tribe-related data can drift between maps, and the friction lands on the players and on the admins who have to correct it.
ClusterSync is designed to bridge that gap: keep the tribe data that matters aligned across maps, and reconcile it automatically as players transfer.
What it does
ClusterSync is a server-side plugin for clustered ARK: Survival Ascended deployments. It treats the maps in your cluster as one connected environment rather than a set of unrelated servers, keeping tribe identity and tribe-related data aligned as players move between them.
Tribe membership, governance settings, rank groups, tribe logs and tribe names are kept in step across synchronized maps, and membership is reconciled automatically when a player transfers. Chat can be bridged between servers so a cluster feels like a single community.
Cross-Map Tribe Synchronization
Consistent tribe identity as players move between maps — and a tribe merge moves the absorbed tribe's structures and tames on every map.
Governance Synchronization
Synchronize important tribe governance settings across the cluster.
Rank Group Synchronization
Keep tribe rank groups and related changes synchronized between maps.
Tribe Log Synchronization
Make relevant tribe log activity available across synchronized maps.
Tribe Rename Synchronization
Propagate tribe name changes throughout the cluster.
Cluster-Wide Alliances
An alliance formed on one map exists on every map, with the same members and admins.
Cluster-Wide Bans
A ban applied on one map applies everywhere, so a banned player cannot move to another map.
Cross-Map Chat
Allow configured chat communication between servers in the cluster.
Membership Correction
Automatically reconcile tribe membership when players transfer between maps.
Cluster-Wide Identity
Tribe associations stay consistent as players move between maps.
Admin Alerts on Discord
Problems an admin has to fix, such as a map losing its database, are posted to a Discord channel you choose.
One synchronization layer, every map
Players move between maps. Tribe data resolves through a shared layer rather than living independently on each server.
