Paradih Cross Decode Linker

Overview

Paradih Cross Decode Linker is a matchmaking bridge service that enables Cross Decode battles between players from different Paradih server instances. It acts as a central hub, connecting multiple servers and facilitating cross-server multiplayer matches.

Purpose

The sole purpose of this service is to link Cross Decode matching across multiple Paradih instances, allowing players from different servers to compete against each other seamlessly.

To connect your Paradih server to the linker, add the following environment variables to your Paradih .env file:

CROSS_DECODE_USE_LINKER=true
CROSS_DECODE_LINKER_URL=http://localhost:5307
CROSS_DECODE_LINKER_TOKEN=your_secure_token_here

Configuration Details

CROSS_DECODE_LINKER_URL	The HTTP URL of the linker service
