How to use Nova-Life server scripts (Linux)?

Nova-Life can be hosted on a Linux server using SteamCMD (app ID 1665030) and an executable started in batch mode. This tool outputs three files: install/update, start and systemd service. These commands do not come from official documentation (see limits).

  1. Choose the file to generate: install, start or systemd service.

  2. Enter the server name, the Linux user and the SteamCMD / install folders.

  3. Run the install script first, then create server.json with the dedicated tool.

  4. Enable the service: sudo systemctl enable --now nova-life.
