Game server

The Front

Linux support

Steam

Yes

Steam appid

2334200

Guides

Isn't really a good guide at the moment that i've found that utilizes the Linux Dedi files.I was able to manually run it by doing:

Normal Steamcmd app_update install using steamlogin, command similar to:
steamcmd +force_install_dir /home/<usr>/thefront/ +login <user> <pass> +app_update 2334200 +quit
Once its installed, I haven't found how to configure the server through ini, but you can take the ini created from the Client file's dedicated server files that it can generate, and turn those into args for the run. Mine looks similar to:
`/path/to/the/install/ProjectWar/Binaries/Linux/TheFrontServer ProjectWar ProjectWar_Start?Listen?MaxPlayers=8 -server -game -QueueThreshold=8 -ServerName="SERVER NAME" -ServerAdminAccounts= -log log=log.log -locallogtimes -EnableParallelCharacterMovementTickFunction -EnableParallelCharacterTickFunction -UseDynamicPhysicsScene -OutIPAddress=51.81.221.71 -ServerID=6969358 -port=5001 -BeaconPort=5002 -QueryPort=5003 -Game.PhysicsVehicle=false -ansimalloc -Game.MaxFrameRate=35 -ShutDownServicePort=5004 -NOSTEAM'

that'll run it off ports 5001, 5002, 5003

I believe these are potential commandline args that can be added, based on the games Dedi server config editor it has built in game for non-headless. I just have noidea where they are added to the headless INI's at the moment.

This dont work atm, because appID 2334200 only download 73mb. A big workaround is needed ;)

Yes, because its marked as windows in the depot, LGSM has a work around for things like this.

I was able to download and do an initial run on the server to create the basic ini files using the following process...

windows server 2012R2 - run steamcmd and then login anonymous, app_update 2334200
copy the files over the my linux NFS drive
on the linux server, login and create the user for the game, switch user and run steamcmd to create the base steam files. (I have steamcmd installed as a package) then copy the files from the NFS drive onto the server into the users home directory under it's .steam/steamapps/LinuxServer directory

then using Midnight Commander i launched the executable "TheFront" which then created the basic saved directory structure where the configs exist (this is all based on my ark cluster experience)

I have a set of scripts that do all of the things required directly from the server, no transferring from Windows required:

https://github.com/pharrisee/TheFrontLinuxServerInfo

Puts the Saved folder outside the application folder to ease updates.

(tries to do things sort of in line with LGSM, using tmux for running the server etc.)

add +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows in steamcmd.it can download windows depot in linux.

Just took a poke at this, and looks to be working well. I definitely look forward to seeing this supported by LGSM.
