 There is some Q&A and other notes of possible interest to someone running a server at [[MOSS/Notes]].

 The source code is hosted in a Mercurial repository here at OpenUru.org. You can clone (download) a copy of the repository using Mercurial, or you can use a snapshot. If you are considering making changes to the code, you will probably prefer using the version control. If you just want to compile and run a server, a snapshot should do. In addition, a compiled version is available for the ''TBD'' platform.
-If you are new to Mercurial, you may want to check the [http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/QuickStart QuickStart guide]. There are links to more complete documentation at the bottom.

 The server definitely works with the [[CyanWorlds.com_Engine | CWE client]]! If you are thinking of doing client development you will probably find a server that is not MOULagain to test with quite valuable. (MOSS was also tested with PlasmaClient, but it does not fully work for PlasmaClient because it does some things that a'moaca' argues are bugs from the system perspective. Development on PlasmaClient is currently suspended<ref>[http://www.nastyprisms.com/temp/cache/plasmaclient.info/ PlasmaClient archived home page]</ref>, but let's fix it if development resumes.)

 The server has some features meant to help make it a little easier to test ages you are creating. The SDL files for an age are loaded each time the age is started up so you can change them without restarting MOSS. There is full support for multiple .pak files. So, run your own server, test at your own pace. Test in the CWE client and not the <abbr title="The Path of the Shell">PotS</abbr> one.
