3 Running the server

Starting the Server

Windows

• Locate the "server.py" in the "Server" folder and double-click it

• A CMD window should appeare with a blinking cursor

• Minimize the window. If you want to see the messages beeing sent and the clients connecting just leave it open.

• If you don't want to see the console windows start the "invisible-server.pyw" instead (Its recommended you run the normal server at least once to check for any missing libs)

Linux

• Open your terminal and cd into the "Server" directory
• Type "python3 server.py" and press enter
• The server should now be running
• If you want it running in the background instead, use screen(screen -dm python3 server.py).
