Server/Running

Servers can be quickly setup over LAN by starting a match in-game, however this is not as powerful or efficient as running a dedicated server separately.

= Starting the Server =
The executable 'daemonded' (daemon dedicated) should be included with your installation. Check your install directories:

{{Game Locations}}

For example:
./daemonded +set fs_libpath /usr/lib/unvanquished +set fs_basepath /var/lib/unvanquished

Quick list of useful options:
* ''+nocurses'' — disabled ncurses console interface, so messages remain on-screen after crashes.
* ''+map mapname'' — without a map the server will kill itself

=Netiquette=
Unvanquished is currently a small community. Please don't aim to create a server in order to only compete for players — division of players will disallow larger matches.

=Specs=
Port 27960 (default quake 3 server port)
= Configuration and Operation =

To discover more commands than are listed here: type a first letter (eg 'g') and press '''Tab''' to list available options starting with that letter. If you are in a terminal: '''Shift+Page Up''' allows you to scroll and the opposite for down.

Edit it: vim startsv.sh

Press <code>i</code> to enter in insert mode, copy & paste this:

Servers can be quickly setup over LAN by starting a match in-game, however this is not as powerful or efficient as running a dedicated server separately.

= Starting the Server =
The executable 'daemonded' (daemon dedicated) should be included with your installation. Check your install directories:

{{Game Locations}}

For example:
./daemonded +set fs_libpath /usr/lib/unvanquished +set fs_basepath /var/lib/unvanquished

Quick list of useful options:
* ''+nocurses'' — disabled ncurses console interface, so messages remain on-screen after crashes.
* ''+map mapname'' — without a map the server will kill itself

=Netiquette=
Unvanquished is currently a small community. Please don't aim to create a server in order to only compete for players — division of players will disallow larger matches.

=Specs=
Port 27960 (default quake 3 server port)
= Configuration and Operation =

To discover more commands than are listed here: type a first letter (eg 'g') and press '''Tab''' to list available options starting with that letter. If you are in a terminal: '''Shift+Page Up''' allows you to scroll and the opposite for down.
