LINCITY(6)			  Games Manual			      LINCITY(6)

NAME
     lincity, xlincity - a city/country simulation game.

SYNOPSIS
     lincity [-w] [-R red-gamma] [-G green-gamma] [-B blue-gamma] [-m mode]
     xlincity  [-v] [-g geometry] [-d] [-r] [-w] [-R red-gamma] [-G green-gamma]
     [-B blue-gamma]

OPTIONS
     -w     Use a gamma correction for the graphic with the values 1.0 for  red,
	    0.0 for green and 0.4 for blue.
	    Please note: The gamma values used are not a gamma correction in the
	    traditional way. Just check it out.

     -R red
	    The  value	for the gamma correction for red color-part. This option
	    takes a floating point argument.

     -G green
	    The value for the gamma correction for green color-part. This option
	    takes a floating point argument.

     -B blue
	    The value for the gamma correction for blue color-part. This  option
	    takes a floating point argument.

     -m mode
	    Set the VGA mode.  This option is ignored on X Windows.  The choices
	    for modes are:
		 lincity -m 10	   ## mode 10, 640x480
		 lincity -m 11	   ## mode 11, 800x600
		 lincity -m 12	   ## mode 12, 1024x768
		 lincity -m 13	   ## mode 13, 1280x1024

     -v     Be verbose on startup (this tells the lincity version).

     -g geom
	    Specify  the X11 geometry argument. E.g. use -g +0+0 to put the win-
	    dow to the upper left corner on startup.

     -d     Perform pix doubling.  Pix doubling renders each pixel as a  2  x  2
	    square,  which  has  the  effect  of making the game appear twice as
	    large on the screen.  This option only applies to the X Windows ver-
	    sion.

     -r     Add an extra border around the game.  This option  only  applies  to
	    the X Windows version.

DESCRIPTION
     Lincity  is  a city/country simulation game running with SVGA graphics on a
     Linux console or in an X11 window under Linux and other platforms.

     You are required to build and maintain a city. You must feed,  house,  pro-
     vide jobs and goods for your residents. You can build a sustainable economy
     with  the	help  of renewable energy and recycling, or you can go for broke
     and build rockets to escape from a pollution ridden  and  resource  starved
     planet,  it's  up	to you. Due to the finite resources available in any one
     place, this is not a game that you can leave for long periods of time.

     For more about how to play, please read the excellent online help	provided
     with the game.  Right click almost anywhere to get help.
