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.
