GTA Connected scripts and server-provided content are called [[Resources|resources]] and are located in the resources folder of your server's directory. Information on creating and using resources can be found on the [[Resources|resource info]] page. If you need scripting functions, the [[Main_Page|main page]] provides information on scripting functions and ID references. Example resources can be found [https://github.com/VortrexFTW/gtac_vortrex here]

The ''server.xml'' file stores the basic [[ServerConfiguration|server configuration]] for your server. This file tells your server what [[Resources|resources]] to load, what port to run on, etc. There are lots of [[ServerConfiguration|configurable options]]. You can also use a different file for your server config by starting the server with the ''-config'' option

Servers hosted from PC's at home will most likely need to [[PortForward|port forward]]. This is usually done within the router's configuration. The instructions for port forwarding vary per router so they won't be listed here, but you can find instructions [https://portforward.com/ here]  ... You'll need to open '''both''' UDP and TCP ports for the server and HTTP connections. Some routers have an option to open both in the same forwarding rule. The default ports are 22000 for both, but these can be different depending on server configuration.

Instructions for setting this up can be found on the [[LinuxServer|linux server]] page.
