We'll be trying out all the different stuff (and see where we get):

setting up the server (I think I would go for the hopmod modification)
maybe creating a custom environment... (wouldn't it be fun to actually have the space as our shooting ground?)
have a go at shooting at each other.
have a go at the fridge, killing a Club-Mate

Here's some links to start off with:

Having a Sauerbraten server running (just the basics)[edit]

Install Sauerbraten (find it in your repo's)
Running Sauerbraten as a server (open a terminal window)
- sauerbraten -d
Here I see where my configuration file is located:
- Location: (hidden folder): ~/.sauerbraten/

Voila, you have a local server running on your IP! (now that was easy, wasn't it?)

resolving dependencies
- sudo apt-get install binutils build-essential cmake g++ gcc libgeoip-dev libsqlite3-dev libzip-dev make subversion sqlite3
going to the folder where I save my source files
- cd ~/src/
putting the latest version of HopMod on the computer
- svn checkout http://hopmod.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ hopmod
compiling it from source
- mkdir release-build
- cd release-build
- cmake ..
- make
- make install
configuring the conf file
- can be found here ~/src/hopmod/conf/servers
- added an admin password
- changed game mode to whatever you want (in my case: "coop edit" to create a custom map)
have a look to the server backend
- http://localhost:28788/admin (localhost or IP address of the Hopmod server)
