NAME
pioneers-meta-server - meta game server for PioneersSYNOPSIS
pioneers-meta-server [options]DESCRIPTION
Pioneers is an implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers of Catan" board game. 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
- -h
- Print a short help text and exit.
- -d
- Run in daemon mode.
- -r location
- Redirect to location.
- -s hostname
- Use hostname as hostname when creating servers.
- -p from-to
- Use ports in the range from-to (inclusive) for started servers. It is advised not to include port 5555 in the range. (See BUGS below.) When this range is not specified, the meta-server will not be able to create new games.
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
pioneers-server-console uses port 5555 for its admin connection. This means that only the first server started from the meta-server will actually succeed in binding to that. For all subsequent servers, the admin socket fails to open, and thus cannot be connected to.AUTHOR
