TIG

A means of sending TCP over GRPC so it can be funneled through cloudflare, slightly tuned for BYOND.

Important note

This only works well on stable connections. If you are playing on a mobile hotspot or heaven forbid satellite internet, this may be a very bad gameplay experience.

This is very much a proof of concept, not a viable solution.

How to use with Paradise

1. Grab the latest release from here depending on your system.

   • If you are unsure, get tig-client.exe, thats the windows one.

2. Open the respective tig-client executable. You should see the following output.

   Connected to server version 1.0.0
   Listening for connections on 127.0.0.1:6666

3. Paste byond://localhost:6666 into run (windows + r). Make sure you have the BYOND pager/launcher running otherwise you wont be logged in!

4. When you first log in, your ping may be higher for 10 seconds or so. Wait a bit for this to stabilise then play.

How to use with another server

The default config can be found in this file. Accepted config sources are:

• config.{yml,yaml,toml,json,ini,ron,json5}
• config-client.{yml,yaml,toml,json,ini,ron,json5}
• TIG_CONFIG_OPTION_NAME pointed to the file.

If you dont understand any of this, just use config-client.yaml.

How do I verify the releases?

If you're a huge nerd, you can use the following provided you have GitHub CLI installed: gh attestation verify -R ParadiseSS13/TIG tig-client.exe.
