NAME
pioneers-meta-server - meta game server for PioneersSYNOPSIS
pioneers-meta-server [options]DESCRIPTION
Pioneers is a computerized version of a well known strategy board game. The goal of the game is to colonize an island. The players play the first colonists hence the name pioneers. It uses a client/server model for networked play. This program provides a piece of network infrastructure that helps match pioneers clients to pioneers servers. Casual players of pioneers probably do not need to run this program.OPTIONS

ENVIRONMENT
The default settings of the meta-server can be influenced with the following three environment variables:- PIONEERS_META_SERVER
- The hostname the meta-server will use when creating new games. This should be a hostname that can be resolved by all clients that will connect.
- PIONEERS_SERVER_CONSOLE
- The path to pioneers-server-console. If it is not set, the default installation path will be used.
- PIONEERS_DIR
- The path to the game definition files. If it is not set, the default installation path will be used.
FILES
/usr/share/games/pioneers/*.game- Game definitions
BUGS
Do not include port 5557 in the --port-range argument because the meta-server uses this port.AUTHOR
