Thanks to all the dedicated server admins out there for being patient, I hope 0.98.2 patch will be the last for a little while :D

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The server build is also included in the game release these days. Using SteamCMD you can pull in updates easily without having to deal with copying the media files manually, instructions how to set it up are here https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD. RWR's AppId is 270150. I can confirm it works nicely!

You can also handle updates manually, below is the good old way:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Link for the Linux build: http://modulaatio.com/runningwithrifles ... 386.tar.gz
Link for the Windows build: http://modulaatio.com/runningwithrifles ... 0.98.2.zip

You need to copy media from the actual game build to your server folder.

Remember to overwrite / adjust these files if you plan to use the gamemode scripts:
* media/packages/vanilla/scripts/admin_settings.php
* media/packages/vanilla/scripts/server_settings_classic.php / server_settings_invasion.php / server_settings_team_elimination.php
* optionally, media/packages/vanilla/scripts/comms_settings.php if you're e.g. running multiple RWR servers in the same system

Generally it's a good idea to keep a copy of these settings in your server root folder after you've set them up, I've got them at /home/pasik/rwr/running_with_rifles_server/mine. Helps when a media update comes and overwrites your settings; just copy the settings back there from your backup.

Launch the server with
Code:
./launch_server

and launch the optional script in another process to get things going, look below. You can also be the script yourself by commanding things in the server console. "help" command in the server console will get you started.

Classic gamemode script can be started with
Code:
./launch_php media/packages/vanilla/scripts/start_classic.php debug_output


Invasion can be run with
Code:
./launch_php media/packages/vanilla/scripts/start_invasion.php debug_output


Team elimination runs with
Code:
./launch_php media/packages/vanilla/scripts/start_team_elimination.php debug_output


There's also some basic placeholder for deathmatch, launches with
Code:
./launch_php media/packages/vanilla/scripts/start_deathmatch.php debug_output


Debug_output isn't exactly needed, but helps with checking that things work by seeing printing in console.

Windows build comes with handy bat files to run the scripts above.

On a headless Linux, the way I'm personally having the server and the script in different processes is by using screen and having the server run in one window and the script in another.

Template for custom metagame interface settings for Linux: http://modulaatio.com/runningwithrifles/metagame.xml

Don't forget to copy the media folder from the actual game RWR beta 0.98.2 to the server folder!
