[new server] Staround about linuxgsm

[tschaerni]

I'am working at the moment on a Starbound script. but it is ugly. Because the Starbound Server don't have useful commands. And there ar only a few like /pvp.

Stay tuned ;)

@tschaerni Looks like you have created an init script for starbound. Looks pretty good. I do recommend you use tmux instead of screen as it will allow you to use console. Tmux is basically an up to date replacement for screen. You can look at my scripts for examples on how to use tmux in your script.

I am currently improving the monitoring on the existing server scripts. Once that is complete I will have a look at writing a script for starbound :)

[tschaerni]

Hey dgibbs64,
No, that's not true, the scripts are for the game Star Made.
But currently I am working on a small script for Starbound. But this is not yet public. I know tmux a little. But I prefer screen;)

Cheers

@tschaerni Right you are, too many games starting with Star :). My scripts used to use SCREEN until I had many problems with permissions and re attaching the console. I was unable to get the "console" feature working on my scripts until I used Tmux. Screen is defiantly a good command until you try to re attach a session is as any user other than root.

Have fun coding the script for Starbound I will be interested so see how you implement it. I know I certainly enjoy working on my projects.

Interestingly enough I just did this manually, then I ran across this github issue. I'll be keeping my eye out for this script to land. I'd like to get my hands dirty with it if nothing comes to fruit.

[dgibbs64]

This is definitely on my to-do list. However I am completing this new feature first :) #4

I did just do a writeup over my experience with doing this via steamcmd. I don't have any of the admin side stuff done like adding upstart scripts to manage the server, but the roots are all here

[dgibbs64]

Looks like you need to own the game in order to use it as a server. This is not normally required by game servers. I may create a starbound script but not so sure yet

[lazypower]

I've actually got the entire process wrapped up in a nice little charm that you may be interested in looking at. Juju is canonical's system orchestration platform. Everything in here relates to hooks or the "state" in which the service lifecycle is in. Take a look at let me know: https://github.com/chuckbutler/starbound-charm/commits?author=chuckbutler the downside to this is I had to disable MFA on my steam account to make it function properly.

not ideal by any means.

[tschaerni]

I have now released my starbound scripts. They are very simple, but effective.
Feel free to modify, but inform me if you make some interesting improvments (:

This is on my todo list.

[Scarsz]

Currently working on this, expect a release today. (all-be-it late, but better now than never)

[dgibbs64]

@Scarsz did you ever finish this?

[Scarsz]

I did but a hard drive corrupted when I was gonna do bug fixes, I guess feel free to work on this.

If therese a testversion or s.th. like it ill be happy to help out with the testing :D

[dgibbs64]

Not yet. But I can see this is a script that people really want so this is a priority script. Meaning its one I will be doing very soon. Hopefully it won't be too complicated. Cannot remember if I need to own the game to run a server. If so I will need a copy of the game. So a donation of the game may be required to get this done. I will check and update this thread.

[Scarsz]

Oh. I could have sworn I released this before I went on vacation, sorry about that. My script is a bit outdated now and I can't work on it further because it does indeed require a purchase. I was able to work on it from a buddy sharing his Steam library with me but his library isn't shared anymore because I reinstalled my computer.

[dgibbs64]

Commit what you have so far and I should easily be able to upgrade it :-).

[Scarsz]

I'll have to mess around with a bit of the coding first because it seems to be broken currently

Edit: slight problem, it's using the old system before everything was moved to separate functions, I don't know if you'd rather just do one from scratch.

[DSDV]

If you send me your eMail i can send you a giftcopy :D

[dgibbs64]

my email is [email protected]. Thank you very much :D

[dgibbs64]

Gift received thank you very much for the donation. I will be working on this now.
@Scarsz commit your current work or email me and I can do the rest. Wont make me long to convert it. :)
