For common problems see the Troubleshooting Guide.

Development

It is recommended to use IntelliJ IDEA to develop with Void. The community edition can be downloaded for free from the jetbrains website. See the installation guide for more instructions.

Once inside the IDE, you can create a new project by going to File | New | Project from version control... |

Selecting git version control and entering the void project URL [e-mail]:GregHib/void.git found under the <> Code button on the GitHub page.

Press clone and after a little while the project will be opened for you, the JDK indexed and gradle setup.

Extract the cache files into a new directory called /cache/ inside of the /data/ directory.

From here you can navigate in the left panel to /game/src/main/kotlin/world/gregs/voidps/ where you will find Main.kt which you should be able to right-click and run.

You can also run in the command line using the gradle wrapper.

./gradlew run

Once the server is up and running; setup the void-client repository or download one of the prebuilt client.jars and run to log into the game.
