SolarTournament runs with node.js on the server-side and with JavaScript on your browser. It’s safe to say that it is 100% platform independent. But for windows-guys there are some batch files to set up your machine for development.

Note: previous versions of SL required the Azure PowerShell and the Node.js Azure SDK from Microsoft. The usual Azure setup for node.js bases on iisnode. That stack might be great for node.js-based websites, but it has too much constrains for a game. SL works with plain node.js!

JAM

  1. Run 1a_install_node.cmd (with admin rights), this will download and install Chocolatey, node.js, Jam, node inspector and nodemon
  2. Run 1b_install_modules.cmd, this will download all NPM packages and all JAM modules
  3. Run 2_start with plain node.cmd, to start the node.js loop
  4. You can now connect to http://localhost:1337 to play the game
