Manual

[naio90]

Hi ppl!

I thougt we could do something more than gathering Data about Airports and Aircrafts... I was reading the manual that is already on the game, and saw that they are still big parts missing. I started to write a Manual with the informaciont copied from the game and with own additions by miself. But its quite a lot and we need to make it very complete, so I wanted to ask you guys if we could do it together? I can send you the word file and you can just add or write your article! What do you think?

The only bit of a problem is that you may not know all the "inner works" of the game, and also that content / features may change still. So that's why I haven't done the manual at all yet. Though most of the office and aircraft subsection pages are complete (for the first release version) so things about those can be written.

But I'd need to first make out guidelines in how to prepare the manual texts so that all sub pages in manual are written in the same way. If there is someone in the team who has experience on those things then raise your hand. (I've done quite a few tutorials and other docs for flightsims but would like to concentrate on coding now)

Before beta testing somekind of quick start guide is needed at least.


(ps. the manual won't be based on Wiki, it's just "plain" pages with a wysiwyg editor at admin side. Wiki is too complex and heavy for such a simple thing as a manual (and would need customization to fit to our layout). I think someone asked this at some thread.)

Well, when everything is completed and we understand it or you tell us the "inner works" then I'd gladly help write one!

(or it may work also so that if someone wants to write of the "user aspect" of the game and I can then fill in with the details)
