+## Outline
+
+Tortuga is a 2D multiplayer JRPG featuring permadeath, with an emphasis on multiplayer cooperation, exploration and customization. The game runs on customizable public and private servers.
+
+This game is inspired by classic 2D RPGs (Final Fantasy, The Legend of Zelda), as well as more modern sandboxes amd MMOs (Minecraft, EVE Online). This project is currently independently created and funded, with the goal of creating a game that will engage the players and inspire a large community.
+
+## Releases

+This is the README for Tortuga's demo build. The source code is available at:
+
+   https://github.com/Ratstail91/Tortuga
+
+The current build may have bugs, missing features, bugs masquerading as
+features, etc. You can report a bug/feature here:
+
+   https://github.com/Ratstail91/Tortuga/issues
+
+Please note that this game requires a functioning server to operate correctly.
+Both a game server and game client are included in this package.
+
+-------------------------
+Instructions For Setup
+-------------------------
+
+1. To create a server, simply run server.exe
+	(a public server is provided by default)
+2. To join a server, your player information must be input into rsc/config.cfg
+	(NOTE: This process will be streamlined later)
+3. To change the config settings, open rsc/config.cfg
+4. These settings must be unique for each player:
+
+* client.username
+* client.handle
+
+5. There are currently two options for 'client.avatar':
+
+* client.avatar = elliot2.bmp #male
+* client.avatar = coa2.bmp    #female
+
+6. When you've correctly set these values, run client.exe, and select 'Start'
+	from the main menu; this displays the list of available servers.
+7. Select the name of a server (default is 'Public') and select 'Join'.
+8. Welcome to Tortuga, enjoy your stay.

-My game Tortuga will have permadeath; it's actually one of the first design decisions I made. How to implement it, however, is another decision all together.
-
-A while ago, before the implementation of hardcore mode, I was playing on a Minecraft server that boasted something close to permadeath: your account would be banned for 15 days, so long that it's almost unavoidable that you'd lose all of your hidden items. This was a brutal server; the further you went from spawn, the more dangerous it became, not less. If the natural hazards didn't kill you, another player would.
-
-I loved it.
-
-Although I haven't been back to that server since I died for the last time, the experience will stay with me forever. I'd played and died on that server a few times, each time I had to wait for my ban to clear. I never really lost much, since I never survived for very long. Even today, in a single player world, I'm likely to die on the first night.
-
-After playing for a while, I began to understand the mentality needed to survive there. Always fear other people, never take risks, and never hoard valuable items if they could be better spent keeping you alive. One day, the last day I played, I found a hole in the ground that someone was obviously using as a "hidden" base. I tried to get in, always careful not to trigger any traps. However, while I was trying to get in, the owner came home.
-
-I was suddenly attacked from behind, I barely had enough sense to dig down, since they were wearing enchanted diamond armour. I had no chance against them. I thought I was safe, digging 10, 20, 30 meters down, but no, they poured lava down the hole and plugged it up. I was a gonner, and I knew it. I was futilely digging and thrashing around in what was now my tomb, about to lose my life. I'd survived for so long, only to lose it all by not keeping a lookout.
-
-When the game over screen flashed up, I screamed. I screamed, and screamed, and screamed. For 5 minutes, my mind was blank, nothing but hatred and pain and loss. I'm sure you've seen the video of the angry German kid who died in WoW, but have you ever actually experienced that pain? Have you ever worked so hard, and lost it all?
-
-For days afterwards, that loss was all I could think about. Even now, that experience stays with me. What about that game, that server, invoked so much pain that I almost lost consciousness from screaming? Me of all people, who thought he was invincible?
-
-I've played games that have moved me, terrified me, made me fall in love and fight for the people that I care about. But never have I played a game that has made me feel pain and loss like that. I died that day. Me.
-
-Pain and loss are part of life, but not games. Permadeath seems like the obvious choice for creating a sense of loss for the player, but there are so few games with permadeath, and even fewer multiplayer games. Pain and loss can be conveyed in other ways, I'm sure anybody who's played Final Fantasy 7 knows that, and some games are especially well suited to delivering that message. However, for a player to feel like they are the one who's died, that is a challenge.

articles/collision-logic.md

-Abstract:
-
-The goal of this pseudocode is to create a collision system that brings several
-colliding bodies to a near-contact state (no space between the bodies, but not
-overlapping), while preserving the motion of said bodies. For simplicity, I've
-decided to use a square box (BoundingBox, or BBox for short) for the collidable
-bodies.
-
-Example:
-
-My current game has a tiled-map, where the tiles are arranged on a 2D grid. The
-tiles each have a flag indicating if they are solid (i.e. collidable) or not. I
-also have characters walking around on these tile maps, that must not intersect
-with solid tiles. For stylistic reasons, I want characters moving at an angle
-to "slide" along these walls, and continue along with their original velocity
-when they've circumvented the obstacles.
-
-I'd also like to keep the possibility of non-grid collisions using this logic
-open (for objects like trees, etc.) if the code allows it.
-
-Obviously, there are many in depth issues that I will need to  take into
-account when writing this logic, that have been glossed over or omitted in this
-article.
-
--------------------------
-
-```
-	velocity = motion + speed
-	if (collision(position + velocity)) then
-		if (collision(position + {velocity.x, 0})) then
-			velocity.x = 0
-		end
-		if (collision(position + {0, velocity.y})) then
-			velocity.y = 0
-		end
-	end
-	position = position + velocity
-```
-
-This code is a basic outline for a collision system that preserves the object's
-motion, but it still leaves several pixels of space between the bounding boxes.
-Notably, it also treats "collision" as an abstract concept, rather than as an
-event that could happen multiple times per frame.
-
--------------------------
-
-```
-	velocity = motion + speed
-	if (collisionSimple(BOXSET, position + velocity)) then
-		velocity.x = collisionX(BOXSET, velocity.x)
-		velocity.y = collisionY(BOXSET, velocity.y)
-	end
-	position = position + velocity
-```
-
-Here, collisions are still abstract, but "BOXSET" is defined externally
-(probably as a set of solid boxes, and their positions). This does require more
-in depth calculations, as well as three specialized utility functions, but the
-results might be what I'm looking for.
-
-If there are any collisions between the player object and the given box set,
-then collisionX() and collisionY() are called to calculate the new distance
-that the character will move.
-
--------------------------
-
-```
-	bool collisionSimple(BOXSET, newPos):
-		for_each box in BOXSET do
-			if (box.overlap(PLAYER.box + newPos)) then
-				return true
-			end
-		end
-		return false
-	end
-```
-
-collisionSimple() first runs through the BOXSET, checking if any of the given
-bounding boxes would collide with the player object's new position (just
-pretend PLAYER is accessible). In this case, non-tile bounding boxes can be
-included as part of BOXSET; they're treated just the same. The optimal outcome
-is that there are no collisions.
-
-A possible, but flawed, optimization that could be preformed here is to remove
-any elements from BOXSET that do not collide with newPos, and let the other
-utility functions operate only on what remains. However, if there are any
-collisions, than newPos is not the algorithm's final result, therefore any
-final result that the algorithm would calculate based on the remaining elements
-would not have been checked against the removed elements.
-
-Just something to note.
-
--------------------------
-
-```
-	var collisionX(BOXSET, velocityX):
-		var ret = velocityX
-
-		for_each box in BOXSET do
-			if (box.overlap(PLAYER.box + PLAYER.position + {velocityX,0})) then
-				if (velocityX > 0) then
-					ret = min(ret, box.west - PLAYER.position.x)
-				else
-					ret = max(ret, box.east - PLAYER.position.x)
-				end
-			end
-		end
-
-		return ret
-	end
-```
-
-Two things: 1. collisionX() and collisionY() should be identical except for the
-axis of operation and 2. if a player object is "sliding" along a wall (or
-stuck), then these functions will be called every frame.
-
-collisionX() and collisionY() check the sides of the elements in BOXSET, and if
-there's a box that the player would collide with, given the current distance to
-move, than the distance is reduced, based on if the character is moving left or
-right (or up or down).
-
-An unfortunate bug I can already see is that this logic doesn't check corners;
-it might be possible to get stuck on a corner of a wall, but if this becomes an
-issue in my implementation I will update this article with that information,
-and you can promptly ignore it.
