Hello I am starting an azeroth core server and was hoping anyone who has done this in the past can potentially give me some tips or advice. I currently have the server running on a separate PC and can successfully connect to it wirelessly which was my main plan. Now that I have the server up and running over a couple weeks I would be just messing around like flying around or just killing things and I came across topics online about pull requests for azeroth core which I guess kind of allows you to grab tested and verified fixes for bugs if anybody can offer maybe some advice or assistance on how I can do something please just reach out to me in a private message I mean the more info I can get the better and finding stuff online is helpful but getting personal opinions and personalized advice from people who have done this sort of stuff in the past would be appreciated. And I guess lastly I was curious on how people set up a web page like do they host the website and route it through a DNS on their own computer I feel like that is kind of dangerous but again that's why I'm here asking for any help I can get.
So far I can confidently say that my goal for this server is to have it run 24/7 and from levels 59 through 79 hardcore mode is active so if you die you do not come back making it to to 80 will grant you long-term access to the server as once you hit 80 hardcore mode is turned back off so if you die at 80 you can resurrect but if you die at 78 if you die at 79 I'm sorry but that's that's the name of the game. Doing it like this made me kind of see potential in people wanting to start fresh but also kind of have a challenge cuz outlands and northrend are both very insanely great expansions so adding those two and being able to complete them through hardcore will in my opinion just make it more worthwhile staying on the server.
I do understand that this process is not overnight and like I said I've already been spending two weeks on this whole thing but I can probably say that I am able to connect from a different computer I just kind of need help making a registration page and kind of learning more information on how to do pull requests to get bug fixes because even though azeroth core installation guide is on their website that alone took me about a week to to actually figure out even though the guy is so simple a simple process is not that simple.
Thank you for reading.
