JC3MP game modes and features are made of packages. A new server runs the official freeroam mode with chat and a spawn menu. Here's how to add your own packages.
Caution
As soon as the packages folder contains any package, your server loads only the packages in that folder and stops running the built-in freeroam mode. To keep freeroam, copy it in first as shown below.
Keeping Freeroam and Adding Packages
Packages are folders, so these steps use SFTP. See uploading files to connect with FileZilla.
- 1Log in to Bropanel and
Stopyour server. - 2Connect to your server over SFTP and open
data/example-server-packages. - 3Download the
chat,freeroamandspawn-menufolders to your computer. - 4Open the
packagesfolder on your server and upload those three folders into it. - 5Upload each of your own packages as its own folder next to them, for example
packages/my-mode. - 6Start your server.
Each package folder has a package.json file. Packages that players need on their side keep those files in a client_package folder inside the package, and players download them automatically when they join.
Going Back to Freeroam Only
- 1Log in to Bropanel and
Stopyour server. - 2In the sidebar, go to
Files. - 3Open the
packagesfolder and delete every folder inside it. - 4Start your server.
Tip
Check your server console after starting. Each package that loads prints a Package '...' loaded. line, and a package with an error says what went wrong.
