How do I load custom maps on hosted server
Posted: Tue Jul 21, 2020 7:07 pm
I am running OpenRA on RHEL 8 - locally hosted and available online. I am looking to load some of the custom maps and make them available to players who connect to the server (myself and my son thus far).
Can anyone help me understand how exactly to accomplish this.
I dropped several orafiles in
My Engine support dir is shown below as part of the startup command.
Can someone tell me if I am doing this correctly? Do I need the absolute path to the directory? Or is there another start up option that I should use?
I believe that I should see some sort of import map dialog.
Or do I need to load the maps locally on my laptop to make them available on the server? I would not think so, but just asking. Thanks.
