For what it's worth, I made some tweaks to just deploy the server files directly, as well as making this package able to coexist with tshock -- happy for some/all of those changes to be included here.

screen: Aha, I hadn't clocked the service was using it -- so far I've just been playing with a modified version of tshock's wrapper script which does something similar but in tmux.

Nevermind the TerrariaServer.bin.x86_64 binary is just a wrapper. It look for monoconfig, the .exe and all the .dll

You are right, on 1.4.5.6 it's an ELF

screen is used by the systemd service thou, but the reason might be outdated too

Is mono and the DLL juggling here still needed? I've slimmed down the PKGBUILD locally to just unpack the server package, and running TerrariaServer directly seems to work fine -- either it's a native Linux build now but wasn't before, or the .NET runtime I have installed elsewhere is contributing via binfmt or similar.

screen also isn't used anywhere directly; could that be moved to optdepends?

Hi,

I propose the following changes to update to 1.4.3.2

the link to the game has to be changed, the provided one doesn't work: https://terraria.org/system/dedicated_servers/archives/000/000/046/original/terraria-server-1423.zip

my workarround:

yay -G terraria-server

edit PKGBUILD, fix the link (I used this link: https://terraria.org/api/download/pc-dedicated-server/terraria-server-1423.zip)

then manually do:

makepkg -si

The links to raw Github files need to be changed. From:

https://github.com/mono/reference-assemblies/blob/master/v4.8/System.dll?raw=true
https://github.com/mono/reference-assemblies/blob/master/v4.8/System.Core.dll?raw=true

to

https://github.com/mono/reference-assemblies/raw/main/v4.8/System.dll
https://github.com/mono/reference-assemblies/raw/main/v4.8/System.Core.dll

Don't forget to fix it in package() as well.

When upgrading, I noticed:

(1/1) upgrading terraria-server                    [######################] 100%
terraria:x:697:697::/opt/terraria-server/:/bin/bash
terraria:x:697:

In terraria-server.install I see within post_upgrade(): getent passwd terraria. No > /dev/null. Same thing for the group.

Somewhat unrelated, but I'll note that post_install() and post_remove() could be replaced with a sysusers.d file with u terraria 697 - /opt/terraria-server/ /bin/bash, which is the more modern way since pacman gained hooks.

Updated to 1.4.0.1. The GetMinPrime() exception is fixed now, turned out to require a new System.Core.dll. Tested with a small Journey world after the new update - seems to work, will test some more.
