DESCRIPTION¶
Red Eclipse is a single-player and multi-player first-person ego-shooter, built as a total conversion of Cube Engine 2, which lends itself toward a balanced gameplay, with a general theme of agility in a variety of environments.
redeclipse-server is a script which executes the redeclipse-server binary from the /usr/lib/games/redeclipse directory.
The recommended way to change the settings of the server is to create and edit the file servinit.cfg in your home directory. Examples are available in /usr/share/doc/redeclipse/examples/
OPTIONS¶
Filesystem options¶
- -hhomedir
- Sets your home directory to homedir. This is where servinit.cfg is read from, it defaults to $HOME/.redeclipse/.
- -ppackagedir
- Includes the data files found in packagedir. Can be used for adding additional maps that may be distributed to clients. By default redeclipse-server only includes data files in the working directory /usr/share/games/redeclipse/data and in the subdirecory temp of the home directory.
- -osauerdir
- Sets the path to your Sauerbraten directory. If the Red Eclipse server can find your Sauerbraten directory, it will be able to load and distribute maps from it.
- -glogfile
- Output log to logfile. Path is set relative to homedir unless a leading ´/' is used, uses stdout if -g is given without a parameter. Defaults to stdout.
Server configuration options¶
- -ss{0..3}
- Sets server type. 0 for local only, 1 for private, 2 for public, 3 for dedicated. Defaults to 1.
- -skjoinpass
- Sets the join password to joinpass. Users must know the password before they can connect.
- -sPadminpass
- Sets the admin password to adminpass.
- -scmaxclients
- Sets the maximum number of clients to maxclients.
- -sldefaultmap
- Sets default map to defaultmap.
- -x"command 1; command 2; ..."
- Executes a list of commands once the Red Eclipse server has started up.
Server connection options¶
- -siserverip
- Binds the server to the host address serverip. Only needed for machines with more than one interface.
- -spserverport
- sets the server port to serverport.
- -smservermaster
- Uses servermaster as the master server, defaults to play.redeclipse.net.
- -saservermasterport
- Contacts the master server using port servermasterport, defaults to 28800.
- -suserveruprate
- Caps upstream rate to serveruprate. Once the cap is hit it will likely cause major connection glitching and disconnects. Use maxclients for bandwitch limiting instead.
Master server options¶
- -ms{0|1}
- Enables the server to act as a master server, defaults to 0.
- -mimasterip
- Binds the master server to the host address masterip. Only needed for machines with more than one interface, defaults to localhost.
- -mpmasterport
- Binds the master server to the host port masterport, defaults to 28800.
