Spring RTS Engine

G'day guys,

I'm starting to write some maps and as I'm in Australia the times when I can host my maps doesn't work well with the rest of the world.

So I was thinking I could host games on my PC while I'm at work or asleep (which would work best with EU and America).

Question is, how do I do this? Is there somewhere I can go to find out about how to do this? Obviously I wish to limit this to just the maps that I write, mainly to find out if the maps are popular and find out how they play.

/MetalSkin.

PS tried looking in the wiki, couldn't find bugger all.

you mean singleplayer?

Spring SP (preferable)
or
run spring.exe manually and use the menus

Nope. I mean run a server. I presume they do it via bots/scripts... I'm talking about things like XTA_AutoHost_#, etc.

search this forum for springie or autohost (or both.)

Ahh thanks for that... found spirngie on the forums here

Maybe there should be a wiki entry about it. unless you know the exact term (eg. springie or autohost) your sorta screwed trying to find info.

Again, thanks for the info.

added DedicatedServer, Autohost and Springie wiki entries. 10 words total, so feel free to improve them ^^

No worries, I might skim the appropriate threads for info and flesh out the wiki a little bit then.
