TRACKMANIARL / SYSTEM GUIDE / 08 Choose a local or remote actor Both deployments use the same authenticated actor-learner protocol and durability guarantees. 01 Local deployment 02 Remote deployment One Windows host Launcher starts separate actor andlearner processes using spawn. Local gRPC The actor connects over loopback.Rollouts still pass authentication. Separate game host The remote actor drives Trackmania andretains a durable rollout spool. SSH or VPN tunnel Authenticated encryption forwards thelearner loopback endpoint. Shared learner runtime Authenticate identity → commit WAL → apply replay → update learner → publish policy /checkpoint IDENTITYBoth sides must agree on the run fingerprint,map and contracts. The bearer token authorizesrequests. ENCRYPTIONThe bearer token does not encrypt traffic. Keeplearner gRPC on loopback and tunnel remoteaccess.
