Linuxgsm: [rust] companion app app.port

[akariley]

User Story

As an admin I want there to be a definable app.port setting so the app can work.

Basic info

• Distro: [CentOS 7.8]
• Game: [Rust]
• Command: [rustserver]
• LinuxGSM version: [v20.3.3]

Further Information

The new companion app set to launch to main tomorrow need a new command line argument to function successfully: +app.port. I hardcoded the default value into the command line and this functioned to allow me to pair my server. Previously with no +app.port defined it did not.

The only requirement for the companion server to work is to make the app.port TCP port accessible over the internet. Port forward, open it, add firewall rules for it.

The default port is the game port + 67, or the RCon port + 67, whichever is the larger number. If you haven't changed any ports that means it will be 28082. This port must be 27000 or greater for Rust+ to connect to it.
