Installation

Windows

You will need the program 7-zip to extract the download file.
Navigate into the AXICombat_v1.4-win64 folder and you can run AXI_Combat.exe . If desired, create a shortcut on your desktop or pin to the taskbar.

Connection

If you cannot connect to the AXI server (the hostname box flashes red if you try to start or join a game), then you can press the Home (⌂) button on the bottom of the main menu to start a local server.
The server address will update to the local server's IP address. Other devices on the same network can connect to this IP address. You can also set up port forwarding to let devices from external networks connect to your server.

Settings

Additional settings can be accessed in the file Settings.txt.
  Change FOV to change the field of view.

Fullscreen

Press F11 to enter fullscreen mode.

On Windows, the Active Fullscreen option will change your monitor's resolution to match the render resolution and reset it when exiting.
  If your monitor stretches the output image or produces an otherwise undesired effect, then you can turn off Active Fullscreen and use the alternate method below.

On Windows (without Active Fullscreen), before pressing F11, first move your cursor all the way into the top-left corner of the screen.
  Then press the Win and + keys simultaneously to activate Windows Magnifier.
  (If necessary, minimize the pop-up window and put your cursor back to the top-left corner.)
  Then press F11 to enter fullscreen mode. Do not move your mouse.
  Then press the Win and + keys again until you reach the desired zoom level.
  Now you can play AXI Combat in fullscreen.

On Mac OSX, first enable zoom under Settings > Accessibility.
  Press Fn and F10 to enter fullscreen mode. Make sure the mouse is being captured (it stays in the render frame).
  Then hold Ctrl and scroll up to zoom in until you reach the desired zoom level.
  Now you can play AXI Combat in fullscreen.

On Ubuntu, first enable zoom under Settings > Accessibility.
  Press Win, Alt, and 8 keys simultaneously to activate zoom.
  Move your cursor to the top-left corner of the screen.
  Then press F11 to enter fullscreen mode. Do not move your mouse.
  Press Win, Alt, and + to zoom in.
  Now you can play AXI Combat in fullscreen.

Issues

Because of Mac OSX's improper key debounce handling, a key press will toggle movement on/off.
