Linux

Warning! Unity editor is still unstable and not production ready on the linux platform.

Linux Install Directions

Ubuntu Installation

Since you run Linux and Sourcetree has no binaries for Linux anyways, i trust you to use git directly. If you have trouble using git use our git tutorial (Link here). You will need git and unity, as well as the programs used for your role.

(!Have to verify this!)

  • Basic setup: With this command you can install unity and git together: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install unity git

Arch Linux Installation

(Warning: The Unity package is huge. For a successful installation you'll need about 8GiB of free space for the package building, and another 3.5GiB for it to install.)

To install git and Unity simply run

yaourt --needed -S git unity-editor

Setting up Sourcetree

When you fire up Sourcetree you add the Repository: https://github.com/kellergemeinde/game_towerdefense.git Then you create your own working branch.

If you need further help with Git please look up our Git Tutorial or the Git Documentation.

Manual Git setup

First clone the repository with the command:

git clone https://github.com/kellergemeinde/game_towerdefense.git

Then change directory to the cloned repo with:

cd game_towerdefense

In there create your own working branch with:

git checkout -b YourBranchName

If you need further help with Git please look up our Git Tutorial or the Git Documentation.

Build

To build the Project in Unity first open up the Project. In the Unity editor click on File->Build Settings or press Ctrl+Shift+B. In the Build Settings window select PC, Mac & Linux Standalone on the left and the Target Build Platform and Architecture on the right. Then you can hit Build or Build & Run on the Bottom.

If you already set up these Settings and just want to Build & Run you can either click on File->Build & Run or hit Ctrl+B.
