Minimum hardware requirements

The minimum hardware requirements is depending on the amount of players and simulated units and what modules used in the simulation.

Small teams 4-6 should not be a problem for a computer with the definition below.

With group size of 10-12 players a more advanced server computer are needed.

CPU: 3rd generation Intel I7/I5 (2012)
RAM: 8 GB

Folder Structure (Where to find things)

The installation creates the following folders:
