====== How to install MoreLore on your own Server ======

**Update: 30 Sep 2023 - THIS PAGE IS OUTDATED (But still works). A proper server pack is available now on Curseforge. Due to some mod resolution issues, and having to open a new support ticket every time, I do not update the server pack for every release.**

Eventually I plan to release a proper server pack, but until then use these steps to get up and running.

===== Fabric Server Installer =====

  - Create an empty folder to hold your pack (you can name it whatever you like)
  - Download the latest Fabric server installer following the instructions [[https://fabricmc.net/use/server/|here]]. You will receive a .jar file after you are finished. This file is the one you need to start your modded MoreLore server instance. Place this file in your newly created folder.
  - Fortunately, MoreLore mods all work (or disable themselves as they should) in a server pack. So all you need to do is create a local client instance using your favorite launcher i.e. Curseforge, ATLauncher etc.
  - Copy over the following folders from the client instance, into your newly created server folder:
    * mods
    * config
    * kubejs

===== Start and Stop Script =====

To automate the process of starting and stopping your server, you can use the following bash code as a reference. If you are hosting this on a dedicated Linux server, I recommend using either ''screen'' or ''tmux'' to run the game in the background. This will allow you to ssh in and attach/detach from the current game session without the server shutting down.

  #!/bin/sh
  # More Lore Enhanced Vanilla Server Startup Script
  
  # Edit the below values to change JVM Arguments or Allocated RAM for the server:
  ALLOCATED_RAM="8G"
  JVM_ARGUMENTS="-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100 -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:TargetSurvivorRatio=90 -XX:G1NewSizePercent=50 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=80 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=50 -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch"
  FILE="./fabric-server-mc.1.19.2-loader.0.14.17-launcher.0.11.2.jar"
  
  # Start server.
  echo "Starting MoreLore Server."
  java -jar -Xms${ALLOCATED_RAM} -Xmx${ALLOCATED_RAM} ${JVM_ARGUMENTS} ${FILE} nogui
  echo "Server shutting down on $(date)."

You can save this code into a file named whatever you want with a ''.sh'' extension. Make sure to make it executable using the following command (on Linux)

  chmod +x YourFile.sh
  
After that you are good to go! Keep in mind that if you run this is an active shell, the server will stop when you close that shell/terminal. As mentioned above, you can use the GNU Screen utility to create a specific "virtual terminal session" using something like this:

  screen -S Minecraft

This will create a new session called minecraft and pop you in it. Then run shell script to start the server:

  ./YourFile.sh

As it boots up, you can "detach" from the running session using ''Control + A + D''

To return to you session in the future you can use:

  screen -R Minecraft

If everything goes smooth, you should now have a working MoreLore server to play on with your friends! Congratulations.
