synchronize across all clients

Post by cruderags »

Hi guys,

I play mana world using different devices. Is it possible to synchronize spell box?

Even friend lists are not synchronised.

Please tell me if there is a way.

Thanks for the amazing game.

sadly no, but intresting idea.

For now you can only manually copy configuration files.

  1. type /dirs in debug tab to know where your configuration files are stored,
  2. Allow hidden files to be dispmlayed and open the configuration directory.
  3. your relations list, shortcuts, key bindings are stored in the file config.xml in the server foder; the path to it under unix should look like: ~/.config/mana/mana/server.themanaworld.org
  4. you can now copy it to your other machine
  5. you may be able to sync the files if your os is able to do it.
  6. You can also copy your config folder to a cloud volume or folder such as dropbox and start manaplus from the console/terminal with

    Code: Select all

    manaplus -C <your config dir>
    (linux)

Edit: beware of key bindings: they may require to be different, MacOS keyboard and other ones for example.
