Multi-User Private Server for The Simpsons™: Tapped Out Mobile Game

Getting Started

Prerequisites

To run this server, you'll need Node.js installed. You can download and install it by following the instructions on the official website. Additionally, you will need a patched APK, which the instructions for can be found at TappedOutReborn/Patch-APK.

Installation

Follow these steps to set up the server:

1. Clone the Repository

Start by cloning the project to your local machine: sh git clone https://github.com/TappedOutReborn/GameServer-Reborn.git

1. Install Dependencies

Navigate into the project folder and install the required NPM packages: sh cd GameServer-Reborn npm install

1. Download DLCs

The app requires "DLCs", which are game assets like characters, buildings, and quests. These must be added to the server for the game to function.

• Create a folder called dlc in the server directory (if it doesn't already exist).
• Download the DLC files using the DLC Downloader.

• Drag and drop the downloaded DLC files into the dlc folder.

• Configure Server Settings

Open the config.json file and update the ip and listenPort values to match your preferred settings: json "ip": "0.0.0.0", "listenPort": 4242

ip: The IP address or domain that the game client will use to connect to your server (ensure this is accessible by the game). Do NOT use localhost, 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0

listenPort: The port number the server will listen on.

npm start
