Setting up BeamMP on Linux

Prerequisites

Install protonhax

[!NOTE] On Arch Linux you may want to use the AUR package
Grab the Steam ID for BeamNG (284160)

Set Launch Options in the Properties... for the game to
```
protonhax init %COMMAND%
```
Make sure the game shows the launcher each start

Start the launcher Now when the launcher is displaying, the Steam ID is technically running. This is great because this gives us the opportunity to mess with protonhax.
Start a windows command prompt

This is done by executing the following command:
```
$ protonhax cmd 284160
```
This should give you a command prompt in the wine prefix of the game.

Once here you will encounter deep levels of frustration because tab completion will not work.

I think you can get it to work by registry settings but I have not investigated this.

[!NOTE] I think you can close the launcher once the command prompt is open because that keeps the wine prefix active but I am not sure. Once the multiplayer mod is launched you will get another launcher and at that time it could get confusing to have both around.
Install BeamMP

Run the BeamMP_Installer.exe from inside of this command prompt and make sure it properly installs.

You can access your regular file system from z:\.
Navigate to c:\

In order to launch the multiplayer game you need to start a file in a deep location.

To make this less painful I suggest you create a windows bat file.

I've created c:\run-game.bat
```
c:\users\steamuser\appdata\roaming\beammp-launcher\beammp-launcher.exe
```
Run the bat-file and enjoy the game!
