An Awesome Guide to Compiling SGLThing

Clone the sglthing repository (https://github.com/floralrainfall/sglthing.git) or download the zip (https://github.com/floralrainfall/sglthing/archive/refs/heads/trunk.zip) of the SGLThing source.
Make sure you have the correct libraries ready:
- libCURL (included in repo)
- CGLM (included in repo)
- glfw3 (included in repo)
- assimp (included in repo)
- glib-2.0
- PkgConfig (cmake requirement)
- libav (ffmpeg)
- OpenAL
- ODE (included in repo)
Create a new directory, build.
Run cmake .. to generate the build files for SGLThing.

If all goes well, use the software for the build files generated by CMake. Examples are:

CMake Output	Command
Ninja (recommended with `cmake -GNinja ..`)	`ninja`
UNIX Makefiles	`make` (`make -j{CORES}` for more performance)
MinGW Makefiles	`mingw32-make` (`mingw32-make -j{CORES}` for more performance)
MSYS Makefiles	`make` (`make -j{CORES}` for more performance), needs to be in a MSYS shell
Visual Studio nn (worst choice)	`msbuild` using the developer tools for Visual Studio nn, or use the appropiate Visual Studio IDE. WARNING: The C socket() libraries may not be available on Windows. The networking system requires the C socket() libraries. Windows is an unsupported operating system in general, so beware with compiling SGLThing for a Windows target.

If you want to choose which generator to use, supply it with the -G argument (e.g. cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" .. will generate MSYS makefiles).
For example, if I had wanted to compile with Ninja files, I'd do (in the build directory)

$ cmake -GNinja ..
$ ninja

which should leave a sglthing binary in the build directory.

Optionally, if you want to package up the SGLThing binary and potentially put it up on here (DM me about it), you need to
1. Have the sglthing binary and the resources directory be in the same directory.
2. Zip it.

Information

SGLThing requires a config_private.ini file in your resources folder, or on the SGLThing path. It also requires to have a user_username and user_password set in a format like
```
[sglthing]
user_username=Your Username Here
user_password=Your Password Here
```
This is to authenticate with the SGLAPI, for servers that require authentication.
