LINCITY-NG(6)			  Games Manual			   LINCITY-NG(6)

NAME
     lincity-ng - City simulator game with polished graphics

SYNOPSIS
     lincity-ng [options]

DESCRIPTION
     This manual page documents briefly the usage of lincity-ng

     lincity-ng  is  a	City Simulation Game. It is a polished and improved ver-
     sion of the old LinCity game: You are required  to  build	and  maintain  a
     city.  You must feed, house, provide jobs and goods for your residents. You
     can build a sustainable economy with the help of renewable energy and recy-
     cling, 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  re-
     sources  available  in any one place, this is not a game that you can leave
     for long periods of time.

     This game is similar to the commercial simulation game with a similar name.

OPTIONS
     These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long  options
     starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is included below.

     -h, --help
	    Show summary of options.

     -v, --version
	    Show version of program.

     -g, --gl
	    Use the OpenGL display mode

     -s, --sdl

     -S, --size

UPGRADE from 1.x to 2.x
     A	new  format  for saved games is used since 2.0, but old games can be im-
     ported and automagically converted. Just copy $HOME/.lincity/*   (old loca-
     tion for lincity and lincity-ng 1.x) to  $HOME/.lincity-ng/  (new	location
     since 2.0).

	cp -a ~/.lincity/* ~/.lincity-ng/

     At  the  start  of the game, one message will popup to remind you have some
     changes to do in your city.
