I believe Linux support would be a great addition
-
I've been trying all day to make a dedicated server on my ubuntu vps however there's always something in the way, I tried using wine and it constantly complained about me not having wine-mono, after several attempts to get it installed, completely failed.
I ended up just learning how wine's sandboxing worked and ran the bootstrapper on my windows machine to get whatever files I needed, and when I finally get the application to run, it instantly excepts with an error when trying to use AllocConsole.
I can go out of my way to patch the bootstrapper, but why should it be so anti-userfriendly? I don't have a Windows vps and everything I have tried using alternatives like wine and several hours of research have come up with nothing.
If somebody has a solution or some place where I can contribute to the project, by all means, please inform me! Would love to contribute some mods for this community & my friends to mess around with.
Aforementioned exception (running it manually):
-
you can and people have run linux servers but we personally dont recommend them yet in the future we will have a docker image for linux servers but there is no eta when that will be done
idk what distro you run but some people have gotten arch linux and or debian to work with pluto when it comes to this

This thread helped me realize that I had an incorrect version of wine installed, however now that wine is installed properly, I'm getting this exception when trying to run the server

I've since figured this out, genuinely shouldn't take anybody more than 24 hours to solve as it did, though
Still, out-of-the-box linux support isn't a bad idea! -
999fini Did you place the executable at the location of the game binary files ?
