== Create Marauroaserver.ini file ==
To create the marauroa.ini file you need to can write it by hand, copy from another place or use ourgame application to generate it.<br>
Please refer to game documentation about how to write it.
To launch the application that will generate the marauroa.ini file write:
<pre>
java -cp marauroa-XXX.jar marauroa.server.generateini
</pre>
It is a text application that will ask you for values. Let's see it.

</pre>
Now write the name of the file where you will store the configuration.<br>
Usually pressing <b>ENTER</b> will do the work, as marauroa.ini is a fine name.
<pre>
Write name of the .ini file (marauroa.ini):
Using "marauroa.ini" as .ini file
</pre>
We need to give a name for database.<br>
Use the one you have written above on database creation.<br>
We need to give a name for database user and this user password.<br>
Use the ones you have written above on database creation.
<pre>
Write name of the database (marauroa): marauroa
Using "marauroa" as database name
Write name of the database host (localhost):
Using "localhost" as database host
Write name of the database user (marauroa_user): stendhal_user
Using "stendhal_user" as database user
Write value of the database user password (marauroa_pass): stendhal_passwd
Using "stendhal_passwd" as database user password
In order to make efective these options please run:
# mysql
create database stendhal;
grant all on stendhal.* to stendhal_user@localhost identified by 'stendhal_passwd';
exit
</pre>
Marauroa acts as a server. So it needs a valid UDP port where it will listen to incoming packets.
<pre>
Write UDP port used by Marauroa (>1024): 32160
Using "32160" as database user password
</pre>
This is perhaps the most complex part of Arianne: Choosing the game.<br>
If you are using one of the Arianne supported games, just write the name and the params will be filled using a template automatically, but if you are using your own game, you must provide the complete class name for RPWorld and RPRuleProcessor of your game.
<pre>
Marauroa is a server middleware to run multiplayer games. You need toadd a game
to the system so that server can work. Actually Arianne has implemented several
games:
- stendhal
- mapacman
- the1001
If you write your own game, just write it name here.
You will be asked for more info.
Write name of the game server will run: stendhal
Using "stendhal" as game
Setting RPWorld and RPRuleProcessor for Stendhal
Make sure Marauroa can find in CLASSPATH the folder games/stendhal/*
NOTE: Copy games generated in stendhal inside folder that contains marauroa.jar file
</pre>
You also have to choose the turn time.<br>
Any range is valid, but the best value is around mean ping time for players, that is around 200-300 ms.
<pre>
Write turn time duration in milliseconds (200<time<1000)): 300
Using turn of 300 milliseconds
</pre>
Finally decide where to store logs and statistics.<br>
Logs will be stored at ''path''/logs.
<pre>
Write path for logs generation (./)):
Using path "./" for log generation
Write path for statistics generation (./)):
Using path "./" for statistics generation
Write size for the RSA key of the server. Be aware that a key bigger than 1024 could be very long to create [512]:
Using key of 512 bits.
Please wait while the key is generated.
COMPLETE---
Generating "marauroa.ini" file
Generated.

Congrats!. You configured your Marauroa server.
