Options for Linux Server

by Mark Cooke · in ThinkTanks · 05/06/2003 (10:05 am) · 4 replies

Hi,

I'm wanting to host a private LAN game, between me and a few mates, but I'm unable to find any referance to the avaiable options: i.e. Do not broacast to Official Mirror, restrict IP etc..

I can bring it up during the game and also running:
./thinktanksdedicated -help

brings up some options, but is there a list I can download that will give me all the options?

Cheers

Mark

    To answer your specific question:

    Find game/server/prefs.cs and change:

    $Pref::Server::DisplayOnMaster = "Always";

    To

    $Pref::Server::DisplayOnMaster = "Never";

    There is no option to restrict IP, but you can always set a password on the server either directly via the $Pref::Server::Password variable in game/server/prefs.cs file or through the gui interface.

    We currently don't have a list of options for the server beyond what is in the readme.

    Jason - you have to run the game once before those files show up. If you create game/server/prefs.cs with the line above it will work just the same, however.
