Game Play Guide
This is how the game is organized:
The team list is the people currently playing, and the people under "spec" are the spectators. While you are a spectator you can spectate other players by right-clicking on a users name and clicking "Spectate"
You can right click on the Team list and chat window and click "Opaque" to make them transparent.
Weapons and ammo are below the player list. Here you can right click on weapons and assign a key to them. You will have to do this if you wish to use a weapon.
If your weight is over 0% you will move slower, and if it is close to 100% you will be unable to move. To solve this just right click on an item and click Drop Weapon or go to the store and sell the item
In this image you will see red and yellow blocks; This is not how the game normally looks. These blocks are called physics and they dictate what you can shoot through. To enable/disable seeing them just type ?showphysics
The mini-map is self explanatory. Red dots are enemies, and other colored dots are your teammates.
Chat:
You can use certain commands to chat with the public, with your own team, and with individual players.
Typeing "Message" and pressing enter will send a message to the public arena. These messages will be in blue
Typing " 'Message" or "//Message" will send a message to your own team. These messages will be in yellow
Some zones require you to pick a class to play. Pressing F11 takes you to the Class select Screen. In this screen you can also purchase attributes if they exist in the zone:
1: Category: sometimes classes are grouped in categories if there is a large number of them
2: Experience: The current amount of experience you have
3: Rank: This is based on the amount of experience you have and doesn't affect anything
4: Class: These are the classes available to use. The one you currently own will have the word "own" next to it.
5: Price: This is the experience cost of a skill/class. When you purchase a class or skill this amount will be deducted from your total experience
6: Buy button: Press this to buy the currently selected class or skill
7: Info: By clicking on a class you will be able to see some information about the class, such as a description and other skills you may need to purchase the skill.
If the class or skill is in red, this means you cannot purchase it. White means it is available to you.
In certain zones you can also buy weapons to customize your character. (Press F10 to go to the Store)
-You cannot buy items unless you are in the Drop Ship in certain zones, and if you cannot it will tell you are in an "unavailable location".
-You can select the quantity of an item to buy
-Items in red are not buyable. Clicking on them and reading the Info will give you information on how to be able to buy the item
-You are able to buy ammo, armor, buildables, equipment, vehicles, and weapons here in most zones
1: A description of the item
2: Required skills for an item -- If the item is red it is because you do not have the required skills to use the item. Looking at this will tell you if you need to switch classes or get an attribute if the zone has that
Macros:
In this game you have to buy ammo for your weapons in certain zones. It may get annoying having to go to the store and purchasing items so the game has Macros which you can assign to keys as explained in the installation guide.
To set a macro:
Type ?buy Variable Armor:1, Grenade - EMP:#3, etc and then press the macro key. A message will appear that says your macro has been set. Once this happens all you have to do is press the assigned macro key to send the message.
Using a # character before the amount will make it so you will only buy that amount of the item. For example, if you have 3 grenades and your macro is set to #2, the macro will not buy any grenades until you fall below the 2 mark.
Armor & Energy
In this game you can wear armor that increases your chances of survival. Your main armor is your energy, and the higher your energy the more damage you can take. Armor will either ignore damage or remove a percentage of it and you can see what it does by looking at the description for the armor.
