# Configure Rooms

![Configuring rooms in the Online Dashboard](https://content.gitbook.com/content/NGFZGdbLA4bzHQXTuDMT/blobs/zJx1rHXoaCI2uwDcSOi0/dashboard-rooms.png)

From the left sidebar, select *Rooms*. On this page you can:

* choose the regions you want to allow your rooms to be created in
* enable Simulators for your Rooms
* view a list of recently created Rooms
* view a list of recently uploaded Simulators

### Simulators

From the Online Dashboard, you can configure what size you want your [Simulator](https://docs.coherence.io/1.7/manual/simulation-server) instances to be. To attach a Simulator to a Room, send the ["Simulator slug"](https://docs.coherence.io/1.7/manual/simulation-server/simulator-slugs) uploaded through the SDK with the Rooms creation request. When using the [Unity Cloud Service API](https://docs.coherence.io/1.7/hosting/coherence-cloud/coherence-cloud-apis) to create Rooms, the Simulator uploaded through the SDK is automatically assigned in the creation request.

### Replication Server & Send Frequency

The packet frequencies for sending and receiving data can be adjusted per project. It is part of the *Advanced Config* section and adjusting the frequencies is available only for paid plans.

### Creating, Fetching and Joining Rooms in Unity

Please refer to the [Cloud Service API: Rooms](https://docs.coherence.io/1.7/hosting/coherence-cloud/coherence-cloud-apis/rooms) section.

### Closing Rooms

Rooms are automatically closed within a few minutes after the last player has left the room. This can be changed in the *Advanced Config* section.

### Current Limits

{% hint style="info" %}
Current limits for Rooms are as follows:\
\
**Players**

The default setting is 10 players hosted, but you can specify your own value anywhere **between 2 and 100 players**.

To support more than a 100 players per room, write to **<devrel@coherence.io>**

**Entities**

**1000 by default**, but can be increased up to 65535 in local development or client-hosted scenarios.

There is no UI button for increasing the supported player count, so you need to work through our [Rooms API](https://docs.coherence.io/1.7/hosting/coherence-cloud/coherence-cloud-apis/rooms).

When creating a room via`ReplicationServerRoomsService.CreateRoom` you can pass `SelfHostedRoomCreationOptions` as creation options.\\

To change the Entity limit just set the `SelfHostedRoomCreationOptions.MaxEntities` to a desired value.
