I would like to add a U.S. ping to the 'Competitive' section in the servers listing as of 2022 going into 2023. I know this thread is old, but I would like some input on server setup if things have changed since 2012. Also, this thread is listed as "The big XPM" thread, so maybe it should be kept up to date?
Where do I find the ruleset config files?
I am not seeing this info online or in the forums, please provide some working links which could be shared with me and the community if possible.
Thanks!
Thank you to trashman, kch, and x86_64 for answering some of my questions while gaming.
All the ruleset/balance files are located in the pk3 for the version which is being run (there are also available rulesets from the community, but you have to download them and add them to the pk3 file yourself). XPM has a few different files, so you need to read through them to understand their hierarchy for loading order. I added the ruleset for XPM to the config file for the server in .xonotic/data which worked great to load the necessary files I needed for the competitive server. It still did not load duel, but I realized that the server-config file from the pk3 listing overwrote data from the config file. I ended up changing the name of the server in in the server-config and I also added gametype duel to the server-config file. Great! Seems to be working. Please inform me if there are supposed to be any other changes to the server which I am missing for duel purposes.
( I also found this great document online to assist with ideas on how to manage servers well. You can search it in a browser with "Welcome to Xonotic Server Management Suite’s documentation!" https://xonotic-server-management-suite....en/latest/ )
