Hello ! I have just got me a dedicated server running on Host Havoc. I am not new to file editing but there is some basic things here I do not get right now. Some basic easy information from some one skilled would be to much help ! Thanks Server Setting Most of the server normal settings you edit in the ''dedicated.yaml'' and the file is ok to understand. But i do get stuck on the (Scenario) option. as defult its set to - Default Multiplayer. I made the server start and runn on the settings i do add in the file. But as I understand the server start the Default Multiplayer scenario? Anyway I do not find this scenario in the (Content/Scenario folder. Add Sector/Planet All the info i read tell me: Locate the sector.yaml : ..:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Content\Sectors ( First of all the Server file's is not on my computer. If I go on file manager on the server and go in folder Content. There is no Folder or file named Sectors. Only Place i find a Sector.yaml file is example: Content\Scenarios\Default Akua-Omicron\Sectors\Sector.yaml. There is more then one Sector.yaml on my server file manager. Its like its one from eatch Scenario. What Scenario the server will runn I can edit the dedicatedserver.yaml. ? In the Scenario option. I understand not to edit orginal names and the Sector.yaml need to mach with the added Playfield folders (names ect ) I will use the tools out there to do more of this. But for now I can even find the right location of the files ect. Thanks
Default Multiplayer doesnt excist anymore. So that setting doesnt work either Well u its abit complicated. but with 8 and the use of the SSG if u dont make a sector.yaml in your scenario folder the SSG will use solarsystemconfig.yaml from RandomPresets folder Look to the Invader vs Defender Scenario it gives u the basic how a custom scenario looks like
Thanks a lot ! Yea its a lot of information in one go. But I need to learn it some how. learning by doing works good. But i need the kick start ;D
So basic, very quick info. This is how I will do it. - Edit dedicatedserver.yaml . add all info. + set scenario type ( MyScenario1 - Make new folder in \Content\Scenarios\MyScenario1 = Copy of Invader VS Defender - Edit the files inside MyScenario1 Download Sector.yaml to my computer Edit it with the empyrion softwear so its more easy to create. - Upload the new Sector.yaml and add it inntoo the MyScenario1 Download random planets, edit the playfield with a playfield generator. Upload the new Planets, and add it inn to the playfield folder on MyScenario1 I DO NOT edit orginal planets or rename them. Always add new ones. So Game updates will not crash the server or change it. Dedicatedserver.yaml -- Will Start the Server with the info added + Start Scenario MyScenario1 MyScenario1 - Will then start the Sector.yaml and this file will open the Playfield Folder and find my planets. Not sure if im complet lost? or am I on to something here =)
Yep sounds right In your own scenario folder u can edit w.e u want. game wont override it since its yours Just indeed stay away from what comes with the game. It will get override with an update
Yay! maybe im not so dumb as I think after all =) I copy all info from Official Public server. I will just tewak some setting and add more playfields. Basic Planets I will not change , just the meteroit drops ect. Just need to find where i do that. I have done some server job's and admin running before. But its many years ago. I am getting old. A lot of players and my self , are willing to start a new server and with admins that can keep a eye all the time. As We sit day in and out on the Public official server and wait for changes. I dont blame any one. As i Understand they are full off other job and duty's to take care off. but this force us to cope the public server and runn one.
