Running the Client

Client binaries can be found here:
 
 
You need to edit the .config file with your faction ID and password:
 
    <add key="factionID" value="put your id in here" />
    <add key="password" value="put your password in here"/>
 
Then run the .exe, download your report and play.  Hold down right button to pan the star map.  Left click selects the nearest object (preferences planets).
 
When you finished click save orders then close the form and Upload Orders to the server.  Ensure you get a success message in the log. 
 
Note that state is not currently persisted - if you issue a load of orders and close the form if you want to amend them you will need to either issue them all again or else edit the .xml file by hand.
 
Let Steve know any problems / changes you want.
 
Forgot, shift-left click to move a selected ship.
