NAME

Vega Strike Celeste - Trade, Fight and Explore the Universe

SYNOPSIS

vegastrike-wrapper.sh

vslauncher

vegastrike [-ddata_dir] [-px,y,z] [-jsector/starsystem] missionname

The recommended way to run Vega Strike is to run vegastrike-wrapper.sh, which will create $HOME/.vegastrike if necessary and, on the first run, run vssetup to allow you to configure vegastrike for your system. Finally it executes vslauncher which allows you to begin a New Game or continue an existing one.

DESCRIPTION

vegastriker-wrapper.sh program see above

vssetup program allows the user to change the vegastrike settings like screen resolution, fullscreen / window, etc.

vslauncher program allows the user to select a mission to run, and whether to start a new or save game to use via the New Game or Load Game buttons, then executes vegastrike

A user may autorecover an autosave file by clicking on the Recover Auto Save button, and selecting the save game to recover to, which will launch vegastrike and recover the save game. Save games must be saved at a base or planet.

vegastrike program begins Vega Strike with the selected XML mission file (full path necessary)

REQUIREMENTS AND INSTALLATION

Run the vegastrike-wrapper.sh program to set up your specific config options and then invoke vslauncher for you.
