I was wondering when creating a new shard, what should be the first things you do?
I have had a few go rounds with trying to make a shard but I always end up trying to do several things at once and swamp myself till im lost and start over. Noob trials I guess.
 
When adding scripts always just add one then restart the server to see if any error's, this will keep everything much easier on you :) Be sure your datapath.cs is set to the game client which the server is running off
This site helps to test your port(check with the server running) http://canyouseeme.org/
If your not sure of your ip for the serverlist- http://www.whatsmyip.org/

If you have problems with a script, post in script support I'm sure you will get help :)

I make sure things run "out of the box" first.

[createworld
- this does all the doors, deco, traps, major dungeon system. Take what you like, uncheck what you don't want to add.

[XmlLoad /Spawns/Trammel
- or Felucca, or whichever facet you are starting with first. This will give you all the vendors and wildlife and animals and stuff. If it runs fine in one facet, I make sure I can [save and maybe even do a [restart to make sure everything loads properly again. Once I am confident that is working, I load the other Facets in the same way.

[admin
- from the Admin menu, I go to Accounts, and create a player account for my shard for testing.

Another way of testing is to give myself a Staff Orb
[add StaffOrb
- then I use it to bind it to my Owner, and I can keep using it to switch back and forth between Owner and Player status.
