This is going to be pretty basic.

= Using the source = Compile the Universe Sim (unisim), either with Visual Studio 2015 on Windows, or with the included Makefile on Unix platforms. It uses cross-platform code everywhere possible, to unify the code-base and reduce the amount of #ifdef that is required to support multiple platforms. Much of this is accomplished through the C++11 concurrency features, which removes the platform-specific dependencies in that area.

The unisim listens on port 5505 by default.

Python 2.7 is required to run the Object Sim (osim), which is driven by objectim.py. Other test kits include clienttestor.py which connects directly to the unisim, and testory.py which connects to the osim. The former includes tests that test specific universe functionality. The latter includes higher level tests, such as ship functionality and full-stack tests like the homing missile test.

The osim listens on port 5506 by default.

The 2D client (Diana2DClient) is written in .NET, and uses Windows forms for rendering a view down the Z axis. It should run under mono, see the notes in the project's folder for running it under Mono. This should compile under Visual Studio 2015.

The client built on Unreal Engine 4 (UEClient) is located in the EventTest folder, and requires the UDK 4.10 or higher to work with at this time.

== Running Things ==

= PyPy =

PyPy doesn't ship, and sometimes won't pick up the system packages.

Diana requires bson, and two dependencies that requires; pytz and six.

Put those two directories and the source file in the Diana root, and away we go!
