Help for continuum and servers working together.
| How to Install Continuum? | 5/10/2001 |
| To Install Continuum on your Server you will need the Continuum.exe and Subgame10a
After you Installed Subgame 10a you will have to create a Directory called "version1" in your Server Directory and put the Continuum.exe in there, after you did that Rename the Continuum.exe to "subspace.exe".

| Players can use % sounds, is this a bug? | 5/10/2001 |
| | No, this is not a bug, but intentional feature. There is server option for enabling and disabling bong sounds for players. It is in server.cfg Message:BongAllowed setting. Set it to 0 to disable sounds for non-moderators. |
| Why there is a lot of 'Security checksum not returned' errors? | 5/10/2001 |
| | It is a bug in Continuum. It happends when player is downloading map and since with freshly installed Continuum there is a lot of map downloads this message pops up quite frequently, I suggest to set Security:SecurityKickoff to 0 till this issue is resolved. |
| Why there is a lot of 'Unknown integrity violation' errors and what are they? | 5/10/2001 |
| | These are displayed when a players is kicked because of low frame rate (FPS). Limit is 15 FPS. It is happening, because Continuum has problems with some video cards. |
| I always get Disconnect after i enter my Zone how do i fix it? | 5/10/2001 |
| | Make sure S2CNoDataKickoutDelay= under [Latency] in the Server.cfg is higher then KeepAliveDelay= under [Misc] in the Server.ini |
| Why does Continuum say that I have no permission to play if I try to enter my zone? | 5/10/2001 |
| | Continuum is not properly set up server side. See FAQ for how to setup Continuum in your server. |
| How can I rename ships and/or descriptions? | 2/16/2002 |
| Straight from a SubSpace Council email from Mr. Ekted about custom ship names/images:
They should be in next release. Menu will load ship images from ship#.bm2 and ship2.bm2 files from current zone directory, graphics directory, or ss root directory, each independently. Each will be scaled as necessary to fit the UI. This is enabled with the menu item "View/Zone-Specific Ships" which is off by default. The format of the description file "shipinfo.dat" follows. Ship names are also passed to the in-game code, if Priit wants to use them anywhere.
; Blank lines and those starting with semicolons are ignored.
; Leading and trailing spaces are removed.
; All lines must appear in the order stated below.
; Use * by itself as a placeholder for the default text.
; 8 ship names in normal order (max 16 chars).
Warbird
Javelin
Spider
Leviathan
Terrier
Weasel
Lancaster
Shark
; 8 ship descriptions for menu mouse-over.
; Max is 255 chars, but may be clipped by skin.
; Use * by itself here will use the ship name(s)
; defined above as "Select ship: ."
Select ship: Warbird.
Select ship: Javelin.
Select ship: Spider.
Select ship: Leviathan.
Select ship: Terrier.
Select ship: Weasel.
Select ship: Lancaster.
Select ship: Shark.
; Spectator description for menu mouse-over.
; Max is 255 chars, but may be clipped by skin.
Spectate (watch the game).
; Ship box description for menu mouse-over.
; Max is 255 chars, but may be clipped by skin.
Select one of eight ships to fly, or be a spectator. You can always change your mind while in the game

| How are the different %'s in the .hlp file? | 2/14/2004 |
| In a .hlp file, there are different methods to tell continuum how to view the F1 help screen.
Line starting with a # - Means that it will start a new F1 page, with everything after it being the header shown in F1.
Once you use a %, it will stay as that color/format till the next %. The default is %W.
%p - Makes it a paragraph formatting. Used for headers inside the current F1 box to off set some things.
%W - Standard grey text color.
%Y - Yellow text, team messages
%G - Green text, private messages
%B - Blue text, public messages
%b - Dark red, the chat-channel color
%p - Pink text, good for headers
Continuum will remove those %'s from the message when displayed, so do remember to think about that when spacing things. Example:
%G!help%W Ask bot for help
%G!view %YNAME%W View stats about %YNAME%W
That will display as:
!help Ask bot for help
!view NAME View stats about NAME
