      I. Requirements and Installation
. ..--================================--.. .
To play Obliterate, you need Doors CS 7.1.1 or higher.  You can
get Doors CS at:

		http://dcs.cemetech.net

To install Obliterate, simply send OBLITR8.8xp to your TI-83+,
TI-83+ Silver Edition, TI-84+, or TI-84+ Silver Edition graphing
calculator.  You can either run it via the Doors CS Homerun feature
from your calculator's homescreen by simply executing prgmOBLITR8 on
the homescreen, or open Doors CS via the Apps menu, then run OBLITR8.

      II. Using Obliterate 1.0
. ..--=========================--.. .
Obliterate can be executed via Homerun or from the Doors CS desktop.
The first time you start Obliterate, it will ask you for your
username, which is stored inside the program so that on subsequent runs
it will not ask.  It will also ask for the minimum number of players, the
difficulty, and whether you want your tank to be dark or light.  The
minimum number of players will specify how many AI tanks will be added to
a game.  If you play a single player game with a minimum of 4 players,
Obliterate will pit you against three AIs.  If two of your friends join
you, then there will be three humans and one AI.  The difficulty ranges
from 1 to 5, and specifies the AIs' accuracy.  Choosing your tank to be
light or dark makes all the other tanks appear as the opposite.

When you are inside the text-entry box, you can use the keys to type,
[ALPHA] to change alpha modes, and [2nd] or [TRACE] to return to the
mouse.  See also the Doors CS 7 manual for all the characters that can
be typed in a text-entry box.

Click on any of the four items in the Obliterate main menu to start a
game, modify settings, view the About window, or quit the game.  The
counter field next to the calculator icon indicates how many other calcs
running Oblit are on your CALCnet network.

When your calculator is connected to one or more other calculators via
a CALCnet hub (or even a simple Unit-to-Unit cable), then the
calculators will see each other, and you can play against the other
calculators.  Please see http://www.cemetech.net to ask about building a CALCnet hub; visit http://www.cemetech.net/projects/item.php?id=33 for
more information about CALCnet itself.

While playing Obliterate, the last tank standing is the winner.  Use the
[Up] and [Down] arrows to rotate your tank's turret, and the [<] and [>]
arrows to raise or lower the power.  There is random wind on each turn,
which is shown at the top of the screen.

      III. More Information

email if you prefer, although posting a topic in the forum is likely to
merit a much faster response.  My email is my first name (from above)
