Each release consists of a .jar package containing both the server and the client application. To make things easier, two almost identical files are provided, the only difference is the class the .jar file executes by default.

How to run:

To use the application, just run the .jar files with:

$ java -jar stratServerX.Y.Z.jar

then, on the same machine or another connected to the same network:

$ java -jar stratClientX.Y.Z.jar

You'll be prompted for IP (if you run the server on the same machine leave blank, otherwise insert the server's ip, example: 192.168.1.8) and for server port, which you can leave blank. Once server is going, you can connect all the client instances you want.

Use a specific port:

If you need to use a specific port, run the server with:

$ java -jar stratServerX.Y.Z.jar portnum

and use "portnum" as port number when running the client. Default port is 4444.

Shutting down:

First, on client side, select Game>exit from the top menu in the "field" window. Once you have done this for every client connected, interrupt the server with ^C (Ctrl+C).
