You can run the game server locally if you have npm and node v20, and also git. To start the game server run these commands:

npm install
npm run build
npm run start

This will start the web server. Point a browser to http://localhost:8080, to get to the game's home page.

To change a port from 8080, set the environment variable PORT in your .env file.

PORT=9000

Each server has a secret server ID, which an admin can use to access game administration pages like the games overview.

Pointing your web browser to http://localhost:8080/games-overview?serverId=SERVER_ID will provide a list of all games available on the server.

You can either set a value by settimg the environment variable SERVER_ID, or instead it will generate one randomly at server startup. Either way, the secret ID is shown in the console at startup.
