westiny

This is a western topview sandbox game.
The game is written fully in rust.

usage

server

Run: cargo run --release --bin westiny_server

By default the server will be listening on 127.0.0.1:5745. To modify this address, edit resources/server_address.ron.

client

Specify server address on client: export WESTINY_SERVER_ADDRESS=1.2.3.4:5745

Run: cargo run --release --bin westiny_client

Or a one-liner: WESTINY_SERVER_ADDRESS=1.2.3.4:5745 cargo run --release --bin westiny_client

running server and client on the same computer

Start the server with default address: cargo run --release --bin westiny_server

Start the client with default address too: cargo run --release --bin westiny_client
Note, that WESTINY_SERVER_ADDRESS has not been set.

configuration

player name

The player's name is got from USER env var, so to change the player's name start client with setting the USER:
USER="Clint Westwood" cargo run --release --bin westiny_client

Running multiple clients on the same computer

To try the game alone you might want to run two or more clients on the same computer.
The server identifies a player by its name and its address.
To be able to connect multiple clients those has to be started with a different player name.
