Set up a game server, write feedback on usability

One of the biggest features of Terasology is the multiplayer aspect of the game. As part of this task, we would like the students to set up a multiplayer server using the Launcher, play around in it with their friends and report back any issues they encounter or suggestions they have.

Definition of 'Done'

  • Student should provide step-by-step review notes including screenshots of the game showing other people in-game. This should be provided in a separate document (not a task comment!) like a GitHub Gist or forum thread
  • If any steps fail include details for the failure and review the issue with a mentor before submitting the task (get guidance on whether it is a Terasology issue or an issue of misconfiguration)

Where to start

  • Download the game launcher
  • Start a new server with a few fun mods enabled, and go bananas!
