Quick Server Question

[brainyplayz]

Having finally finished working on my game, and purchasing a Linux distro, the thought occurs is there not something I need to change in the files of the client to tell it to connect to my server and not look for a local one? could someone tell me if this is right and if so where is the file I need to edit?

 

Many Thanks

Client/Resources/Config.xml is where you can tell it the ip of the server to connect to.

In almost all cases, anyone looking at a Linux VPS needs to have prior experience with them else you will never get it setup and you will waste money. Sometimes it's worth the extra cost for a Windows VPS simply because it's familiar.  If you proceed to get a Linux machine and then can't set it up correctly and ask for help our answer will likely be as follows:
