Building PLGarage

Building the software

In order to build PLGarage you need .Net 8 SDK, you can get it here it is also recommended to install git

If you have git installed

1. open a terminal window and navigate to the path where you want to store the source code
2. type git clone https://github.com/jackcaver/PLGarage.git
3. type cd PLGarage
4. type dotnet build -c Release and wait for the build process to finish

If you don't have git installed

1. download the source code of the repository and unzip it to the location where you want to store the source code
2. open that folder in terminal
3. type dotnet build -c Release and wait for the build process to finish

Once the build is finished

After you have successfully built the PLGarage, the built copy should be located in PLGarage/GameServer/bin/Release/net8.0 you can launch it directly from there or move somewhere else, but please do note that if you want to launch it on a different machine and not the one you had built it on, you would need to install .Net 8 Runtime on it or alternatively if you know how, you could make a self-contained build, to remove the .Net 8 Runtime requirement
