SIMPOL Documentation

The guisimpolserver.exe program was designed as a desktop program to be run on a logged-in server. It gives much more fine-grained control than our original simpolserver.smp program. With the release of the new version of the simpolserver.exe and its ability to be controlled using simpolserverclient.exe, there are fewer reasons to choose this version, though it is a much simpler design and may have less issues in a working environment. For one thing, it is all self-contained. On the other hand, if left running for a very long time, it might be less stable than a version that does not have the user-interface components included and running. For now, pick the one that suits you best. Since they both support the same configuration file format, there is no difficulty moving from one version to another. Below is an image showing the user-interface. This image is from the simpolserverclient.exe program, but there is no obvious difference between them.
