This is the "master server" for openage.
Features:
- Dedicated server registry for public lobbies
- Player accounts
- Match results signed with GPG
- Player and match statistics
- Elo rankings and match making
When you want to play with friends via LAN, VPN or Internet, this server is not required for you.
This server provides available public lobbies and can generate balanced battles through Elo matchmaking.
You probably don't want to run it except for development: To have one "official" community, this server is provided by sft.
The openage masterserver uses the haskell tool stack to build and
install.
Executables can be built using stack build.
The server can be started by running stack exec openage-masterserver.
The port it is listening on and the database login credentials are
specified in the config file /etc/openage/masterserver.cfg.
To start a testclient use
stack exec openage-masterserver-test HOST PORT
You will be promted to enter login credentials which need to be stored
in the postgres database.
To view all available commands type help.
Yay! You can just start hacking on whatever you like to improve. Fix bugs, implement features, submit pull requests!

I know that probably nobody is ever gonna look at the copying.md file,
but if you want to contribute code to openage, please take the time to
skim through it and add yourself to the authors list.
