NAME

       pioneers-server-gtk - graphical game server for Pioneers

SYNOPSIS

       pioneers-server-gtk [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pioneers-server-gtk command.

       Pioneers  is  an  implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers of Catan" board game for the GNOME desktop environment.  It uses a
       client/server model for networked play of between two and eight players.  This program provides a GUI-configurable stand-alone server which
       you connect to from pioneers itself.

OPTIONS

       Pioneers accepts the standard GTK+ commandline options.

ENVIRONMENT

       The default settings of the server can be influenced with the following three environment variables:

       PIONEERS_META_SERVER
	      The hostname of the meta-server when no meta-server is specified in the user interface. (The settings file takes precedence)

       PIONEERS_SERVER_NAME
	      The hostname of the server.  If it is not set, the hostname is determined by hostname(1).  (The settings file takes precedence)

       PIONEERS_DIR
	      The path to the game definition files.  If it is not set, the default installation path will be used.

NAME

       pioneers-editor - Editor for the Pioneers boardgame

SYNOPSIS

       pioneers-editor [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pioneers-editor command.

       Pioneers  is  an  implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers of Catan" board game for the GNOME desktop environment.  It uses a
       client/server model for networked play of between two and eight players.  You will need to connect to a machine	running  either  pioneers-
       server-gtk or pioneers-server-console to play.  An AI client, pioneersai, is also available.

       Pioneers-editor	can  be used to create new board layouts.  Clicking on the plus and minus signs on the side of the board will increase and
       decrease the board size respectively.  Left clicking on a tile allows one to select the terrain type; Middle or right clicking  allows  one
       to  set	the  chit number or port type and orientation.	The chit number can also be set by pressing the number key(s) while the pointer is
       hovering over the tile.

       In the settings tab, several game settings can be adjusted.

PLAYING

       Games created with pioneers-editor can be played with pioneers-server-gtk and pioneers-server-console, if they are installed in the  global
       game directory.	Alternatively, they can be played with pioneers-server-console, by using the --file option.

OPTIONS

       Pioneers-editor accepts the standard GTK+/GNOME commandline options.  See pioneers-editor --help for details.

FILES

       /usr/share/games/pioneers/*.game
	      Global game files.  Games which are installed here can be selected by title, and played from pioneers-server-gtk.
