@starxiao It can be run on Mac with the Mono project
.
Install Mono (there should be instructions on the site), download SPserver.exe (yes, the exe file, you'll see in a minute), save/move it to somewhere more permanent (maybe /Users/[your username]/simpleplanes-server/SPserver.exe ?) open a terminal, cd to the dir where you saved the exe (google "mac terminal basics" and read as much as you need to to understand what I'm talking about) and run "mono SPserver.exe" in the terminal.
.
You may want to make a startup script (google "bash scripting") that cds to the correct folder and then starts it, since if you're not in the correct folder, it will create new admins, bans, world, etc. Also, this way, you can set it to run on startup as well.
Here, I'll post an actually grateful comment.
Thank you so much for adding the designer suite mod into the game. I somehow wasn't aware that it existed before this update, but as someone who has used 3D suites like Blender in the past (I'm not going to pretend I'm any good at Blender or anything lol) I really appreciate the additions like orthographic view, side views, reference images, and x-ray mode. Thanks guys!
Pretty cool.... Although it would be cool if you would make a unmodded version. I am on PC now, but I used to be on iOS and I would have downloaded this then, but I couldn't for obvious reasons. @kerbango
Hey, ChiyomiAnzai (who deleted her account on this site), of all people, raided the server beluga posted earlier and deleted all the invites. Here's a new invite.
Holy cow I was dumb 11 months ago. If only I had just googled some stuff. Sorry to bother everyone.
.
I guess I can answer my own questions.
.
1. CAN THE SERVER RUN ON LINUX?!
Yes, of course it can. You just use mono, like HellFireKoder said. It's literally mono spserver.exe and that's it. It works just like WINE, but simpler.
.
2. Can you run multiple instances of the server on one server machine?
Of course you can. Just start them all as different processes and tell them to use different ports. Same as any other server software.
.
3. What ports does the server executable open up?
This one is a little different, as this is something that might be worth knowing before you start up the server. Just my dumb opinion, but on the mod's page it should probably say what ports the server opens up and that if it can't open the ports, instead of just going to something like Tunngle (use that as a last resort), try manually opening the ports in the router. (usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1).
Did you try reinstalling SimplePlanes, restarting Steam, restarting your whole computer, restarting everything, etc.?
.
Also, what laptop do you have & what operating system is it running (Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, MacOS, etc.)?
. This site is a good place to put the crash log. And yes, it would probably help.
Have you tried different USB ports/tested the USB port you’re using? Cause it could be a dead USB port. Another way you could test this is seeing if it’s showing up anywhere else in macOS.
.
Also, it’s generally a good idea to specify as much information as possible (macOS version, SP version, Mac model, etc.)
@jamesPLANESii Uhh... thanks? I based it off of my Minecraft skin from my Bedrock Edition videos. That skin is actually a parrot, but I guess I did a bad job of making that obvious.
The "Screen Time" feature in iOS 12 lets you see what apps he's using, what webpages he's visiting, etc., and you can set limits on specific apps and websites. It's pretty powerful and you can link it to your iCloud account so you can see what he's doing from your phone (assuming you have an iPhone). If you want more control, however, that can get more complicated. You can try Googling "iPhone mobile device management", but I think only corporations can get access to that. There's also the option of jailbreaking and using something like Cydia to get a keylogger or something like that from outside the App Store, but I don't know anything about that, so you'd need to ask someone else.
@enzoBoeing757 Well... my other theory was that some websites remember your login for a day or two if you don’t check “remember me” and then remember your login for something like two weeks if you do check the box. I’m pretty sure this site is that way because I’m not the most frequent user of this site, and even if I check the box, if I come back after a week or two, I’m logged out again. I just kinda deal with it because I have a password manager, but I can see how getting logged out every time you close your browser window could be EXTREMELY frustrating.
@Wahoo12 give me a day or so... I have an idea for how I could show you

@Zoomzoom999 K thanks
If I were hosting my own site, could I use an image URL from my site? Or does it have to be from a proper service?
@enzoBoeing757 I assume you’re checking the “remember me” box every time you log in?
