Running the Server

This is assuming Windows 10.

Pre-requisites

Docker

Before Running the Server

Make sure you that you have executed 'install.bat' to build the module before continuing.

Seeding the Treasures and Spawns

You must execute run_server_dev_seed.bat to create the needed database tables. The server will shut down if it does not detect if the databases are complete. Note: it takes about 5-10 minutes to finish it, so wait until the docker says the server has "exited" before closing it.

Running the Development Server

Run run_server_dev.bat to start the server. Make sure you have executed run_server_dev_seed.bat at least once it or it will shut down.

Running the Production Server

Before running the production server, you will need to execute update_server.bat at least once to copy over the files needed. Do this after any time you have updated the module and wish to see it's changes.

Make sure you have executed run_server_dev_seed.bat at least once or the server will shut down.

Also, create a text file in server/config and call it nwserver.env. Add these three lines below:

NWN_PORT=5121

NWN_PUBLICSERVER=1

NWN_SERVERNAME=<NAME OF SERVER>

Finally, execute run_server.bat to start the docker instance for the server.
