The Rigs of Rods Server is a game server for Rigs of Rods (http://www.rigsofrods.com/). It is compabible with RoR clients version 0.33d, and any future client using the RORNET protocol version 2.0
please refer to http://wiki.rigsofrods.com/pages/Compiling_Server
to start a server: rorserver (-ip ) (-port ) (-name ) (-terrain ) (-maxclients ) (-debug) (-lan) (-inet)
-lan
Force LAN mode: will not try to connect to the central repository to register the server.
-inet
Force Internet mode. Will fail if it can not register with the central repository.
-ip <public IP>
The IP address to which the server can be joined. Optional in inet mode. Mandatory in lan mode.
-port <port>
The port number used by the server. Any port is possible, traditionnally it is 12000 and upward.
Example: -port 12000
-name <server name>
The advertised name of the server. No spaces allowed.
Example: -name Bobs_place
-terrain <terrain name>
The terrain served by this server. Must be a valid RoR terrain name, without the .terrn extension.
Example: -terrain nhelens
-maxclients <max number of clients>
The maximum number of clients handled by this server. Values below 16 are preferable. See the bandwidth note below.
heartbeat-interval
Time in seconds, default 60. For debugging purposes.
Notes: By default, if neither -lan nor -inet is used the server will try to register at the master server and fall back to LAN mode in case it fails.
The RoR server uses large amounts of bandwidth. The general formula to compute bandwidth is:
-DOWNLOAD: maxclients * 64kbit/s
-UPLOAD : maxclients * (maxclients-1) * 64kbit/s
That translates into:
-4 clients: 256kbit/s download, 768kbit/s upload <= will nearly saturate most ADSL links
-8 clients: 512kbit/s download, 3.5Mbit/s upload
-16 clients: 1Mbit/s download, 15Mbit/s upload
-32 clients: 2Mbit/s download, 64Mbit/s upload <= will nearly saturate a 100Mbit/s LAN!
