Hi,
I've always interested in PB and have played it back in the days. @Jmandupree asked if I'd be interested in playing around with these sources that were released a year ago.
We'll be using the 2019 released server, but we'll fix it up.
Plans are:
- Make the code up to standards. Its all static bs all over the place. :barf:
- Upgrade the code to .NET Core 3.1 / 5 so it can be ran on Linux.
- Replace PostgreSQL with MySQL, its just friendlier in my opinion.
- Adding custom modes.
- Add tooling & features to improve the development cycle, simplify the progress of tedious actions (Adding new weapons, configuring etc)
Ideas are welcome
I'm not too experienced with the game data structures, so if you have any helpful information, feel free to contact me.
If you want to follow our progress, you can do so by visting our discord: https://discord.gg/qNERcAhVAG We'll host live coding sessions couple times a week!
This awesome ideas, I want to wish you good luck
All people are nothing but tools...
Currently moved the projects to .net core 3.1, dropped SharpDX dependency.
We'll be cleaning up the code over the next couple days after which I'll work on adding in dependency injection.
I've been working on replacing PostgreSQL with MySQL, it just has my preference, however its now very easy to replace it for any other database framework. I've added in Dapper and will slowly replace everything with dapper queries which greatly reduce the amount of boilerplate sql code.
The projects have also been upgrade to .NET 5.0 in order to use some language features.
The MasterServer project has been completely moved to dependency injection.
The internal logger has been replaced with the Microsoft Ilogging interface and we'll use NLog as our logging provider.
Configuration is now a single .json file. Right now it has pretty much all the settings however I will move those settings to the database so that the configuration json will only have the minimum settings to get the sever running.
We've been working out more ideas about future features and integrations, some exciting things are happening.
Found a backdoor to shutdown the server:
thats kinda funny code, very easy to spot
