Document, and make it easier to for users to run their own instances

[mberland]

this would be nice! even just a few lines for those of us reasonably familiar with open source development...

Okay, I made some tweaks to the code to make it just a tad bit easier to run your own instance of Tactic, plus I wrote some quick documentation:

Thanks! Will try in the next few days & let you know.

works fine! not quite sure how to "copy in tiles" from the tile repository folder on disk into the app, but it boots & runs & everything! will play more later!

Whoa, that's a minor miracle. By "copy in tiles," I meant to create them by hand. One way to do this is to click the "new tile" button in tiles area, then copy and paste in the code from the tile python files. You can also add them using the "add file" button.

Any tiles that you want to have as part of the default set need to have the tag "default".

I could give you a script to just upload all of the tiles in one go. But I'd have to pass you the password in some secure way.

I see! Will try the copying first!
