[Feature Request] Dedicated Server support #314

Open Merith-TK opened 1 month ago

Merith-TK commented 1 month ago

I run a LinuxServer dedicated, and was hoping the mod could be ported over to LinuxServer if possible, and if not, what are the limitations preventing you from doing so?

RozeDoyanawa commented 1 month ago

FicsitNetworks is unfortunately not compatible with either Dedicated Servers nor Linux. Some members in Discord have had various degrees of success getting it to run under linux client with various translation layers.

The main reason we do not have Dedicated Server support is lack of devs. Neither of the current two main devs plays Multiplayer. I personally can't even test multiplayer.

I would be willing to help test and attempt to help develop the mod on Dedicated Servers, I do not know much of C varient languages but I do know enough golang and java to be able to understand the formatting and structure of code once I see it (and get the appropriate VSCode extensions). Just need to be able to talk to someone who knows how to help me setup a build environment (The guide on modding website didnt really help me understand the stuff as much as i would've liked)

The mod is open source, if you feel like "fixing" it, you "just" have to grab the code and set up the development environment. Do note tho, that part of the network code is in C++ and part is in blueprints.
