Starting the server

FallenDev edited this page Jun 9, 2023 · 5 revisions

Project "AlwaysOn" is a daemon that monitors your processes looking for "GameServer". If it finds that the server is not running, it will initialize a new copy of the executable to ensure that the server stays "Always On".

To start your server initially, I recommend you run the GameServer until you've flushed out any bugs that may have been created during your modification or setup.

Afterwards, if everything runs correctly. Use the AlwaysOn executable to create an environment that will recover from any errors or issues that the server may have.

Once you're ready to login and create your GM, go ahead and create a character as you normally would using your GM name (Default: Death). Upon logging in, you can use slash "/" commands immediately, however I recommend at least picking a race and walking through the tutorial until you're to the point where you have a few basic commands already pre-populated.

Once you're ready let's type your first two commands.

/give "Death Scythe"
/skill "Two-handed Attack"

This will give you the GM weapon which boosts your stats so you can survive while administering your server.
