[Bug]: Some required changes for the new 'The Front' support
User story
The new 'The Front' support needs to be tweaked to fix some minor errors/misunderstandings in the current default configuration.
Game
The Front
Linux distro
Ubuntu 22.04
Command
command: start
Further information
The start script in _default.cfg needs a little tweaking:
- The
-ServerTags
value is currently set to 'LinuxGSM', but this won't achieve what I think is expected. TheServerTags
options takes a prescribed set of values, see https://github.com/pharrisee/TheFrontLinuxServerInfo/tree/main#server-tags for more information about the expected values. - I may be mistaken about this one but current thinking on the
-ServerPassword
option is that having an empty value for it in the options stops connections to the server. This happens because the client still asks for a password, but won't allow an empty value. - The default option of
-GMOverlapRatio
with a value of 2 will mean that it overrides the games default stack size and multiply it by 2. - The
-Game.PhysicsVehicle
option should be set to true, this fixes issues with vehicle handling in game, without this being true the vehicles have a tendency to drift like a cartoon cat and get damage when they are breathed upon.
Relevant log output
None
Steps to reproduce
This is based on the _default.cfg config file on initial setup.
I want to add something to @pharrisee second point.
It is not possible to not set the ServerPassword option. The password will always be an empty string. So the player has to enter an empty string. And the server is shown ingame as password protected. All config values are documented here
Expected behaviour: It should be possible to not set the ServerPassword option
