Work on the same client with a Team

[Dylan_mtg]

Is it possible to work on the same client with a team? 

 

Can we both be in the same Editor? or Edit the same map at least? 

 

Also what's the best way to set up my game client so people can login and test things?

You can't edit the same items and maps at the same time. You'd be overwriting eachother's changes. You can work on different things at the same time though.

 

As for the client, set it to connect to your server through whatever publicly available address you have and distribute it through or with whatever update mechanism you want to use. Be it steam, the built in patcher or whatever.

How can we work on things at the same time? 

 

And is there a popular server which I can use to host the client?

You need to host your server, easiest way is to go through Intersects Hosting

Give your team a copy of the client and editor and your done. Editor edits are made live, so you won't want 2 people working on the same exact thing at the same time.

Server can be hosted anywhere as long as you can open firewall ports to allow public access....

 

Then all you gotta do is put your public ip and server port into the client and editor/resources/config.json file so the client/editor knows where to find the server when you ship it off to your team or players.
