Running a Server

This page describes how to run a server for people to play on.

The basics are the same as running a local server, with the following settings.cfg parameters also important:
  • [Network] / address: The IP address or hostname (for example, www.yoursite.com). If you do not specify this, only people on the same physical machine will be able to connect to you. So you must set the right value here for the server to let other people play on it.
  • [Clients] / limit: The maximum number of clients you want to allow to play at one time.
  • [Components] / list: A optional list of components (plugins) to run. See src/python/intensity/components for those available; you can also write your own. For example, if you add intensity.components.bandwidth_watcher to the list, the server will monitor itself for excessive bandwidth use.
