A gameserver application launchable through Docker for on-demand hosting. Lobby servers are responsible for launching and maintaining the containers.
The easiest way is to simply use Docker and pull the image from https://hub.docker.com/r/victordavion/ddags Example run command: docker run -d -p 40002:9000 --name ddags --restart unless-stopped -e PORT=9000 -e NOMATCHMAKING=1 victordavion/ddags
One can also run without docker, but Node JS will be required. Being written in TypeScript, modify the tsconfig.json to match the transpiled JS version required for whatever version of Node you're targetting. (Tested on v12.13.0). Once Node is installed on the system, do the following:
The Game Server listens on port 9000 by default or the PORT enviornment variable.
