| *'''Arrow keys''' to move
| |
| *type '''ooc "text"''' to speak [[OOC|out of character (OOC)]]
| |

| |
| *type '''say ";text"''' to speak over the radio (in character)
| |

| |

| |
|
| |
|
| |
| == General Tips ==
| |
| '''Some general tips that will get you through game play:'''
| |
|
| |
| *Not sure what something is? Shift+Click on an object to examine it. If you need more info, [[Objects|search the object from wiki]]. Every door on the station has a label, too. If you're not sure where you are, examine a nearby door.
| |
| *Play your first ''real'' round as a [[Cargo Technician]] - It will let you learn the controls from more experienced players (Notably the [[Quartermaster]]) in a low stress, low importance job, while being useful.
| |
| *Join after the round officially starts, so to [[Traitor|minimize]] [[Wizard|any]] [[Changeling|risk]].
| |
| *It's okay to tell people you are new in IC chat. Some of your coworkers might even take the time to show you the ropes.
| |
| *Clicking and dragging your [[PDA]] enables hands free usage. Clicking your PDA with an ID places it inside.
| |
| *If OOC chat is too noisy for you you can toggle it off under the Preferences tab in-game.
| |
| *[[Internals]] are important. To set up an internal gas supply, you need a mask and an oxygen tank. Put the [[Gas Mask|mask]] on the mask slot and your [[oxygen tank]] on your belt or back. Then click the [[Starter guide#Heads up display|internals status button]] to toggle it. Note that they run out of air eventually, the pressure of the gas supply in use can be observed from the info-tab. You start with a box with internals in your backpack.
| |
| *Space is deadly without a [[space suit]] on, and a set of internals running, or proper mutations which enable you to live without air or warmth.
| |
| *Examining your [[Clothes_and_internals#Earpieces|radio headset]] will list all available channels and how to talk on them.
| |
| *Having your [[intent]] on Help will let you walk through others with help intent on instead of bumping into them. Always have 'help' on when moving around.
| |
| *If you get contacted by an [[Administrators|admin]] please reply politely and simply tell your side of the story. You reply to admins by clicking on their name.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| '''Do not:'''
| |
| *Do not share any in-character information in OOC or over IRC (See '''IC in OOC''' [[Terminology#IC_in_OOC|here]]).
| |
| *Don't play any [[Heads of Staff]] jobs until you have some experience as their subordinates.
| |
| *Do not play Security roles until you have a very good handle on the game's mechanics.
| |
| *If you get killed, don't complain in OOC. If you feel the kill was unjust, use [[Adminhelp]].
| |
|

|
| |
| === Antagonist ===
| |
| Try to resist the urge to press the "be syndicate" buttons. [[Game Modes|Antagonist roles]] can be excessively hard, and next to impossible to the newest of players. Get your space legs for a bit, and hope you get brainwashed in a [[Revolution]] or [[Cult magic|Cultist]] round to have a watered down [[traitor]] experience before taking the plunge.
| |
|
| |
| == Closing ==
| |
| Keep in mind that the idea of this game (like all games) is simply to have fun. Just follow the [[rules]], don't be a jerk, check the updates, and remember a little of how each job works (so you know what department blows up the ship and which one [[Beyond the impossible|cures you of diseases]]).
