feat(newserver): soulmask

[intel44]

Description

Adding server compatibility for soulmask : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2646460/Soulmask/

AppID : 3017300

Based on documentation :

• https://soulmask.fandom.com/wiki/Private_Server
• https://pimylifeup.com/soulmask-server-linux/

Specific development : The game uses telnet as server manager. In order to stop the game server cleanly, an attempt is made to save the world before stopping the server. If telnet fails, the server is killed via tmux (standard).
A similar process existed for 7 Days to Die. Development was based on what already existed.

Fixes #4587

Hi,

Is there already a release date for the Soulmask server in LinuxGSM?

It's already merged in develop branch. You can deploy it like this using env variable : (or wait for new release)

As usual, Download linuxgsm.sh

curl -Lo linuxgsm.sh https://linuxgsm.sh && chmod +x linuxgsm.sh

Set these environement variables in your current terminal in order to use the development branch :

export LGSM_GITHUBBRANCH=develop

And launch server installation as usual with lunixgsm.sh :

./linuxgsm.sh smserver

Don't hesitate to give me any feedback !

@dgibbs64 I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for his quick adjustment and validation

I've been using lgsm for over 8 years now, and having created a similar library in bash several years ago on the professional side in order to centralise our processes, I can tell you that it's a pleasure to learn and discover on the dev side !

I wish you all the best for the future, and our paths should cross again depending on the games that come along 😉
