/tg/station build script

This build script is the recommended way to compile the game, including not only the DM code but also the JavaScript and any other dependencies.

  • VSCode: a) Press Ctrl+Shift+B to build. b) Press F5 to build and run with debugger attached.
  • Windows: a) Double-click BUILD.bat in the repository root to build (will wait for a key press before it closes). b) Double-click tools/build/build.bat to build (will exit as soon as it finishes building).
  • Linux: a) Run tools/build/build from the repository root.

The script will skip build steps whose inputs have not changed since the last run.

Dependencies

Why?

We used to include compiled versions of the tgui JavaScript code in the Git repository so that the project could be compiled using BYOND only. These pre-compiled files tended to have merge conflicts for no good reason. Using a build script lets us avoid this problem, while keeping builds convenient for people who are not modifying tgui.

This build script is based on Juke Build - please follow the link and read the documentation for the project to understand how it works and how to contribute to this build script.
