How to use the Aurora Multiplayer Client:

Installation:

  1. Download the latest release from the "Releases" tab in this repository
  2. Place the mod into the root of a clean Aurora install (you will loose your games if you place it into an existing install)

Creating a new game:

  1. Launch aurora 4x
  2. Check this game browser to make sure that you pick a game name that is not already in use
  3. Make a new game and create the player races, preferably along with a "placholder" race that comes ahead of the others alphabetically to prevent accidental cheating
  4. Take your turn, and do everything until you would need to time warp
  5. Save your game
  6. Launch the mod
  7. Click "New Game"
  8. Enter the same name that you gave you Aurora save when you created it
  9. Add the users that will be in the game (should line up with the races that you created)
  10. Click "Create Game" and wait for the upload to complete
  11. Now click on "Continue Game"
  12. Once it finishes downloading the db (don't worry, your turn is still saved), enter how long you would like to time warp for
  13. Click "Submit Turn" and wait for the upload to finish

Continuing an existing game:

  1. Launch the mod
  2. Click on "Continue Game"
  3. Wait for it to download the latest version of the DB
  4. If you are the last player, the mod will tell you how long to warp after you finish your turn
  5. Launch aurora and take your turn without advancing time
  6. Save your game inside of aurora
  7. Back inside of the mod, enter how long you would like to time warp for
  8. Click "Submit Turn" and wait for the upload to finish
