Brief description of the game
Nova-Life: Amboise is a free-to-play French life simulation game where players can explore an open world, manage jobs, interact with the economy, and participate in roleplay activities.
The developers provide a free dedicated server version (Unity-based), which allows running private multiplayer servers outside of Steam.
Features relevant for AMP integration
Here is what the dedicated server currently supports and why AMP can integrate it easily:
-
The server runs as a native Linux executable (
nova-life.x86_64) – no SteamCMD required. -
Launch arguments are simple (Unity server):
-batchmode -nographics -startServer "Amboise" -logFile "logs.log" -
The server uses three ports by default:
-
UDP 7777 (game port)
-
UDP 7778 (query port)
-
UDP 27015 (Steam port)
-
-
All server files are stored locally—no install script or complex setup.
-
Console output is readable and manageable through STDOUT/STDERR.
-
Configuration is stored in basic JSON/KVP-type files.
-
The game is completely free, so AMP users would not hit any licensing issues.
Requested Feature
Please add official support for Nova-Life dedicated server in AMP, allowing it to appear in the Create New Instance game list.
This would mainly require:
-
A GenericModule template (similar to other Unity-based servers)
-
Entry for
nova-life.x86_64executable -
Ports definition (7777/7778/27015)
-
Basic command-line arguments
-
Metadata (Steam AppID: 885570)
I can provide a working KVP template if needed — the server runs correctly under AMP using a custom GenericModule.
Why it’s useful
-
The game is free, and its community is growing quickly.
-
Many players want to host private instances, and AMP would make deployment extremely easy.
-
Currently, the only option is manual configuration via GenericModule.
Adding it would allow AMP to support the entire Nova-Life community with minimal effort.
