-This subdirectory contains scripts and a config file that can be used
-to start a dedicated Xonotic server on linux, mac or windows systems
-and also some tools that help with maintaining your server.
-
-You will need to copy the right script for your system into your
-Xonotic main directory, where the normal binaries are. You then need
-to copy and ADJUST the config file which is called server.cfg. You
-can copy it either into the Xonotic/data directory where the big
-data*.pk3 file is or when running on linux or mac you can as well copy
-it into a special directory named '~/.xonotic/data'. After you have
-setup everything and have adjusted the config file you can start the
-server by running the server script.
-
-Please make sure your server is always uptodate! Just signup the
-Xonotic release mailinglist to get informed about new releases.
-https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xonotic-releases
-
-An important thing is to make sure that your firewall does allow
-players to connect to your server. This typicly means you will have
-to open or forward the port (see the line that sets the variable port
-in your config.cfg for the right port number, default is 26000) to the
-computer running your server. How to do this does depend on your
-computer and network setup.
-
-If you plan to install custom maps on your server you should read the
-file Xonotic/Docs/mapdownload.txt to learn how to setup automatic map
-download.
-
-In case you want to rename the server.cfg file, e.g. because you want
-to run several servers on one machine, you have to edit the script and
-change the name there too.
-
-A very useful tool for running and controlling a server is the
-application 'gnu screen'. It should be available for all usual
-operating systems. You can find some hints about its usage here:
-http://jmcpherson.org/screen.html
-
-The options in the config file are only the most interesting and
-important ones. You can get a list of all available commands and
-variables with 'cmdlist' and 'cvarlist' in the server console.
-
-rcon.pl is a perl script that implements rcon which can be used to
-remotely control your server.
-
-rcon2irc is a Xonotic server to irc gateway. It allows you to watch
-and communicate with active players on your server via irc. Read its
-rcon2irc.txt to learn how to setup and use it!
-
-help.cfg is a Xonotic config file providing a simple help message
-system. It prints all the messages from a list, one after the other
-with an configureable delay between them. Great to provide beginners
-with some hints.
