# Introduction ## Guide to setting up and maintaining an Open Tibia server This book will cover the basics of setting up your first Open Tibia server, introduce you to its interface, teach you some scripting, and more. ## What is Open Tibia? Open Tibia (abbreviated as OT) is an open source role-playing game that allows people to create their own servers for the public to play. They may have unique content, brand-new maps, special features or even custom skill/level rates different than those in the original Tibia. Along with Open Tibia comes an Open Tibia community formed by players just like you who want to create something of their own. People within this community help each other, provide tutorials, contribute to the development of new and improved servers, among other things. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
