Tutorial: Meteor in Windows using Vagrant

BEFORE YOU CONTINUE:

Official Meteor Windows preview is available at: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/meteor-core/355MsiNzfiE
mrt is no longer used with Meteor 1.0

These days some people were discussing at meteor-talk group about running Meteor at Windows and I’ve recommended them using Vagrant. It’s a very developer-friendly piece of software that creates a virtual machine (VM) which let you run any operating system wanted and connect to it without big efforts of configuration (just make the initial installation and you have it working).

Many packages (I've tested) for running Meteor+Vagrant fails because Meteor writes its mongodb file and also other files inside local build folder into a shared folder between the Windows host and the Linux guest, and it simply does not work. So I've put my brain to work and found a solution: do symlinks inside the VM (but do not use ln. Use mount so git can follow it). It’s cove

	// Converted to C# because I fucking hate UnityScript and it's inexistant C# interoperability
	// If you have C# code and you want to edit SmoothFollow's vars ingame, use this instead.

	using System.Collections;

	public class SmoothFollow : MonoBehaviour {

	var fov: float = Camera.main.fieldOfView;
	fov += Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * sensitivity;
	fov = Mathf.Clamp(fov, minFov, maxFov);
	Camera.main.fieldOfView = fov;
	}

	ZoomAmount = Mathf.Clamp(ZoomAmount, -MaxToClamp, MaxToClamp);
