Lobby Server

The Lobby Server is a public server which handles Player authentication and lists Drafting Servers to help Players and Spectators find and join them.

Development

The Lobby Server project can be found in the NautDrafter_Lobby project in the repository.

Installation

The Lobby Server requires the following in order to run:

Java 8
Networking
- The ability to bind to a port (default 50000)
- Unfiltered network access on that port (will NOT work through a HTTP proxy)
- Persistant connections must be allowed (will NOT work through a proxy that kills idle connections)
Filesystem Access
- Must be able to write to whatever directory it is installed to. This is so it can save database files.
Config
- Requires a Steam API key in a file named STEAM_API_KEY in the installation directory. This file can be found in the private NautDrafter Installer repository.

A distributable package of the Lobby Server and its dependencies can be created by cloning the repository, and running ./gradlew NautDrafter_Lobby:disttar
