Cove 1.0! 🥳

As of WebFishing v1.09 cove implements all fetures from the main game making it a parallel experience compared to the actual game!

Webfishing Cove

Cove is a dedicated server for WebFishing written in C#!

[!IMPORTANT]
Cove is very new, there will be unexpected bugs!

If you encounter any large issues or bugs please let me know!

Cove is a implementation of the WebFishing network protocall in a CLI meaning it dosent require Godot or anything other than Steamworks!

How it works

Cove uses none of WebFishing's code, insted it used C# to emulate the same network calls that the offical game would make to host a lobby!

Things like event spawning all had to be written from scratch to allow for the portability of C#! (also because i dont know GDScript)

Because of this emulation to run the server you must run it from a steam account that owns the game and that has steam open in the background

If you have any questions or issues with Cove, create and issue on Github or join the Discord Server

Todo

• [X] Spawn actors required for the metal detector
• [X] Improve error handling
• [X] Some sort of plugin or modding support (C# API)
• [ ] Add proper support for actor handling (90%)
• [X] Make hostspawn and metalspawn IHostedService's
• [ ] Write a plugin guide / how to create plugins

How to run:

[!NOTE]
To run a server you must have Steam open on the computer you wish to run the server on and Steam must be logged into a account that has WebFishing in it's library

Also please note you can't join the server on the account you are hosting it on!

1. Download

   • You can download the most recent version of the server here: Nightly Releases
   • Or if you want the latest stable version it is here: Latest Release
   • A new build is made everytime code is changed so it may update quite alot!

2. Decompile WebFishing

   • Once you have the source files drag the main_zone.tscn file into the /worlds folder of the server!
   • The main_zone.tscn file can be found here in the WebFishing project /Scenes/Map
   • You can use gdsdecomp to decompile a Godot project (WebFishing)

3. Change settings

   • If you dont see the config files (server.cfg & admins.cfg) run the server once and they should be created in the same place the application is!
   • You can modify the settings in the server.cgf file with all the info you want!
   • Too add a admin put there Steam64ID in the admins.cfg file with a = true after it!
   • I.E. 76561198288728683 = true

4. Run!

   • Run the server EXE and enjoy!
   • Please be respectful and dont name the servers anything stupid!
