==============================================================

IF ON TECHNIC: the pack includes a file called server_prep.zip
IF ON CURSEFORGE: download the file from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gs541uyh9008e4i/server_prep.zip?dl=1

==============================================================


Packaged inside server_prep.zip you will find a collection of files that will
CONVERT THE PACK INTO A SERVER VERSION and launch the server for you.

The script will essentially:
-Discard any mods or download scripts that should not be used by the server by reading through server_prep_files_to_remove.txt
-Download and launch the Server Starter jar
-Download and set up the server files for Minecraft
-Download and set up the forge files for a modded server instance


=== INSTRUCTIONS: ===

1. Extract the contents of server_prep.zip to the same folder as this README.
2. Run server_prep_and_launch.bat (Windows) OR server_prep_and_launch.sh (Mac and Linux).
3. Follow any prompts given (Accepting the setup, and then accepting Mojang's EULA).

Subsequent launches of the script after the server has been set up will simply launch the server again.


=== FAQ: ===

Q: Can I set up the server manually?
A: If you prefer, you can open server_prep_files_to_remove.txt and manually delete the files listed.
  Not every file listed will exist in your pack installation. You must then download and initialize Forge version 1.7.10-10.13.4.1614 as a server.

Q: How do I change the RAM usage?
A: You can change it by editing 'server-setup-config.yaml' at Line:108
  # specifies the max a mount of ram the server is supposed to launch with
  maxRam: 4G

Q: Why won't the script download the files??
A: Check that there is no antivirus stopping the script from downloading mods.
