Meriton: initial import and reformatting from Map_Testing

2006-09-16T21:42:02Z

initial import and reformatting from Map_Testing

New page

So you have written a new resource and would like to test it? Then you have come to the right place :)

=== Save it ===

Resources are stored in

*Linux — ~/.armagetronad/resource
*Windows — C:\Program Files\Armagetron Advanced\resource
*Mac OS X — ~/Library/Application Support/Armagetron Advanced/resource

Inside this directory, resources are located at

'''author'''/'''category'''/'''name'''-'''version'''.'''type'''.xml

where type, name, version, author and category must match those stated in the resource:

<Resource '''type'''="..." '''name'''="..." '''version'''="..." '''author'''="..." '''category'''="...">

In windows, the subdirectories must be seperated by '\', not '/'.

=== Tell Armagetron to use it ===

by setting the relevant configuration item to

'''author'''/'''category'''/'''name'''-'''version'''.'''type'''.xml

(note that you have to use '/' regardless of whether you use windows)

You may want to set the configuration item permanently by editing

*'''Windows'''—C:\Program Files\Armagetron Advanced\config\settings_custom.cfg
*'''Mac OS X'''—~/Library/Application Support/Armagetron Advanced/config/settings_custom.cfg
*'''Linux'''—~/.armagetronad/config/settings_custom.cfg

=== Run Armagetron ===

Now its time to play Armagetron Advanced locally.

If you have saved it wrong or the path you put is incorrect it will tell you.

If your settings or code is wrong it will also tell you a line number.
