     5 ## The official server

     7 The "official" server has some additional features over "normal" servers. Most notably, the "official" server saves replays and the `/watch` command in the lobby.

     8 

     9 Internally, this is just a `#define` that can be triggered on. It is possible to build a clone of the official server, but it is tricky (and not really documented yet).

    11 ## How to build the official server

    13 *NOTE*: This guide is INCOMPLETE and UNTESTED!

    14 

    15 First, make sure to define the symbol `OFFICIAL_SERVER` before building the server. 

    16 

    17 For the official server, you need the normal dependencies for the Hedgewars server plus a couple of additional Haskell dependencies. See `gameServer/hedgewars-server.cabal` in the source code repository for a list.

    18 

    19 As soon you built the official server, you need to set it up.

    20 

    21 In the same directory with `hedgewars-server`, create a file named `hedgewars-server.ini`. Add the following dummy contents:

    22 

    23 ```

    24 bans = []

    25 dbHost = localhost

    26 dbLogin = hedgewars

    27 dbName = hedgewars

    28 dbPassword = password

    29 sv_latestProto = 51

    30 sv_message = Hi

    31 ```
