For this guide we'll be using Cloudflare as our DNS provider. If your using a different DNS provider, the guide should still work for you, there may be a few differences but there shouldn't be anything majorly different.

1. Get the node IP by going to the Game Panel and ping the URL of your server to get the node IP.

2. When you've got the node IP, go to the DNS of your domain name, and create the following records:

A few little notices for the records.

Just note, if your using Cloudflare DNS, make the records under the GREY CLOUD, NOT the orange cloud!

If there are any problems with this article, please let us know!

An A record with the following (replacing example.org with your domain name):

Type	A
Name	server.example.org
TTL	3600 / Automatic TTL
Address	The node IP of your server

An SRV record with the following (replacing example.org with your domain name, and server port with your game server port):

Type	SRV
Name	_minecraft._tcp.play.example.org
TTL	3600
Priority & Weight	0
Port	your server port
Target	server.example.org

....and your done! For peeps that already know what they're doing, that's all you need to do. If your stuck, go back to the article that explains everything.
