| 8 <h1>RLG-Web β3 Help and Information</h1> | |
| 9 <p>This page explains RLG-Web and how to use it. Since the project is still under rapid development, details may change.</p> | |
| 10 <h2>Browser Compatibility</h2> | |
| 11 <p>RLG-Web has been tested using Firefox and Chrome; there should be no problems with recent versions of these two browsers. Safari and Opera ought to | |
| 12 work, though they haven't been tested yet. Internet Explorer 9 is compatible, but older versions might not be.</p> | |
| 13 <h2>Starting Games</h2> | |
| 14 <p>If you have already registered an account, you can log in. If not, create one with the "New name" button. Once logged in, RLG-Web will list your | |
| 15 saved games and let you resume them or start new ones.</p> | |
| 16 <p>If there are games being played, you can watch them whether you are logged in or not.</p> | |
| 17 <p>Use the "Stop" button to stop watching a game, or to force a game you are playing to save.</p> | |
| 18 <h2>Playing Games</h2> | |
| 19 <p>The games can be difficult to learn if you are not familiar with ASCII roguelikes. The '?' key will tell you what each key does. An 'S' will save | |
| 20 your game, and a 'Q' will quit.</p> | |
| 21 <p>The original method of moving around was with the vi-keys.</p> | |
| 22 <table style="font-size: 2em; margin: 0 5em"> | |
| 23 <tr><td>y</td><td>k</td><td>u</td></tr> | |
| 24 <tr><td>h</td><td>.</td><td>l</td></tr> | |
| 25 <tr><td>b</td><td>j</td><td>n</td></tr> | |
| 26 </table> | |
| 27 <p>This is the most reliable way of exploring.</p> | |
| 28 <p>You can also move with arrow keys, or with the number pad, if your browser recognizes those keys. If it doesn't, the simulated keyboard can imitate | |
| 29 them.</p> | |
| 30 <p>Note: Super-Rogue does not work with the arrow keys or the number pad yet.</p> | |
| 31 <h2>Saving Games</h2> | |
| 32 <p>If you accidentally close your browser, don't worry. If RLG-Web does not hear from you for a whole hour, it assumes you have gone away, and | |
| 33 automatically saves your game. Your strength 18 character with the two-handed sword on level 22 is safe from bugs. But the dragons are sure to get him.</p> | |
| 34 <h2>Accounts and Passwords</h2> | |
| 35 <p>rlgallery.org doesn't use https yet, so you should not assume your password is safe. Don't use the same one you use on your bank's website, etc.</p> | |
| 36 <p>You don't have to supply a valid e-mail address. It will only be used if you ask to have your password reset.</p> | |
| 37 <h2>Missing Features</h2> | |
| 38 <p>You can't watch games that are being played in dgamelaunch yet. The opposite situation works: you can use dgamelaunch to watch games being played | |
| 39 in RLG-Web.</p> | |
| 40 <p>You can't change your password or e-mail address yet. You will have to log in via ssh to do this, for now.</p> | |
