'=== Linux Dedicated Server Setup Instructions === Instructions for setting up a dedicated server on a Debian based distribution. We will be using SteamCMD to install and update the server. Install steamCMD dependencies using the commands below, either as root or a user with sudo privileges. <pre>sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 \ sudo apt update \ sudo apt install -y lib32gcc1 \ sudo apt install -y lib32gcc-s1</pre> Create the user who will run the server. <code>sudo useradd --create-home necesse </code> Change to the necesse user and go to it's home directory, where we will be installing steam and the server files. <code>su - necesse ; cd /home/necesse</code> Then download and unzip SteamCMD <code>curl -sqL "https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd_linux.tar.gz" | tar zxvf -</code> Create the configuration file that will manage steamCMD <pre> cat >$HOME/update_necesse.txt <<'EOL' @ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1 //Set to 0 if updating more than one server. @NoPromptForPassword 1 force_install_dir /home/necesse/ login anonymous // Necesse dedicated server is available as anonymous. Thank you Fair! app_update 1169370 validate quit EOL </pre> Run steamCMD and point it at the config file to install and update the server. <code>./home/necesse/steamcmd.sh +runscript $HOME/update_necesse.txt</code> This will take a few minutes. SteamCMD will first update itself, then download the server files. This command will also update the server files. Either run it as a cron job or manually as needed. You can now start the Necesse server with <code>./StartServer-nogui.sh</code> You will have to answer a few questions each time the server launches. To start the server with no interaction, use the -world [Save name] Argument. Example: <code>./StartServer-nogui.sh -world SaveGame1</code> == Ports == Default port is, '''14159''' You will need to do port forwarding and find your IP address to give to friends. There is already a write-up about this on the wiki. ==File Locations== By default The server configuration file is named "server.cfg" and is located at <code>~/.config/Necesse/cfg</code> The world configuration file is named "worldSettings.cfg" and is located at <code>~/.config/Necesse/saves/YourWorldNamehere.zip</code> The save data is the .zip named according to the world name, and is located at <code>~/.config/Necesse/saves</code> The server logs are found at <code>~/.config/Necesse/logs</code> You can also force configs to the game directory with the -localdir parameter in the shell script file. Example: <code>./StartServer-nogui.sh -localdir</code> ==Docker instructions== Running Necesse using Docker is also possible. Create a Dockerfile in an empty directory: <pre> # Use a base image FROM debian:bullseye-slim # Add user 'necesse', don't run stuff as root!! ARG user=necesse ARG group=necesse ARG uid=1000 ARG gid=1000 RUN groupadd -g ${gid} ${group} RUN useradd -u ${uid} -g ${group} -s /bin/bash -m ${user} RUN dpkg --add-architecture i386 RUN apt update; apt install -y lib32gcc-s1 curl openjdk-17-jre-headless # Download and extract SteamCMD RUN mkdir -p /steamapps RUN curl -sqL "https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd_linux.tar.gz" | tar zxvf - -C /steamapps WORKDIR /steamapps # Create the update_necesse.txt file RUN echo '@ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1' >> update_necesse.txt \ && echo '@NoPromptForPassword 1' >> update_necesse.txt \ && echo 'force_install_dir /app/' >> update_necesse.txt \ && echo 'login anonymous' >> update_necesse.txt \ && echo 'app_update 1169370 validate' >> update_necesse.txt \ && echo 'quit' >> update_necesse.txt RUN echo $(date) && ./steamcmd.sh +runscript update_necesse.txt # Saves will be available under /root/.config/Necesse/saves RUN chown -R 1000:1000 /app RUN chown -R 1000:1000 /home/necesse USER ${uid}:${gid} # Set the working directory and create entrypoint.sh WORKDIR /app RUN echo '#!/bin/sh' > entrypoint.sh && \ echo 'java -jar Server.jar -nogui -world "$WORLD_NAME"' >> entrypoint.sh && \ chmod +x entrypoint.sh # Set the entry point for the container CMD ["./entrypoint.sh"] </pre> Build the image: <pre> docker build -t necesse . </pre> Now run the container interactively once to create a world: <pre> docker run --rm -it -v necesse_data:/home/necesse.config/Necesse necesse java -jar Server.jar -nogui </pre> Please remember the world name! Now you can run the docker forever, create a file called '''start_necesse.sh''' and make it executable by running '''chmod +x start_necesse.sh''': <pre> docker stop necesse docker rm necesse docker build -t necesse . docker run -d --name necesse \ -e WORLD_NAME=my_world\ -p 14159:14159/udp \ -v ./data:/home/necesse/.config/Necesse \ --restart always \ necesse </pre> If there is an update you can run '''start_necesse.sh''' again and it will update to the latest version available on Steam and automatically start.'
