Quickstart

Follow the steps below or download the pre-built binaries from the releases.

1. Clone the repo and (optionally) go to release branch for stability

   $ git clone https://github.com/DragonFIghter603/aeonetica.git --recursive
   $ git checkout -b release

2. Compile the client, server and mods

   $ python3 build.py

3. Run first the client and then the server in two separate command prompts next to each other

   $ cd server
   $ cargo run -- <server_ip:server_port>
   # example: cargo run -- 127.0.0.1:6090
   # or simply:
   $ python3 build.py -r
   
   # and
   
   $ cd client
   $ cargo run -- <client_ip:client_port> <server_ip:server_port> 
   # example: cargo run -- 127.0.0.1:9000 127.0.0.1:6090
   # or simply:
   $ python3 build.py -r

   Alternatively, run the binaries of client/server from <crate>/target/release/<executable>.exe.
   Build with --release flag py build.py --release and cargo run --rlease for better performance.
   For multiple clients, use a different client_port for each: 9000, 9001, ...
