This is an incomplete linux port of "Clonk Planet" engine.
           ~~~~~~~~~~
It was not (yet) meant for distribution, but I don't have time to work on it now
It might build, it might even work and be playable.

=== missing features ==
- developer mode
- network game untested (or at least the linux version is not compatible with
  the windows one)
- maany ugly hacks - grep for FIXME :>
- most of the frontend

=== building ===

Required libraries:

- SDL
- SDL_image
- SDL_mixer
- SDL_ttf [UPDATE: a modified version is included, SDL_ttf doesn't have to be
		installed system-wide]

Run 'make'. If any problems occur, check the makefiles for wrong include/library
paths.

=== running ===

Required data files which are not included:
[from the shareware Clonk Planet]
- Graphics.c4g
- Material.c4g
- Objects.c4d
* Easy.c4f
* Maps.c4f
* Missions.c4f
* Tutorial.c4f
* Worlds.c4f
- Sound.c4g

Put them to the directory specified as "Datadir" in General.conf (default: /usr/share/clonk).

- player files. This version is unable to create player files.

The player files should be placed in the directory specified as "UserData" in General.conf (default: ~/.clonk/data).

The syntax for 'engine' executable is horrible (blame the author of Clonk Planet
I only renamed /Fullscreen -> /player :)
Example:
./engine /player Missions.c4f/Submine.c4f Objects.c4d Plr1.c4p Plr2.c4p

So we need a frontend (like in the windows version).

=== frontend ===
A skeleton for a frontend is in the fe/ directory. This is a completely new app
written by me from scratch (the source code for the original frontend was not
published).
Requirements: gtk+
The current version is even less usable than the engine, most of the
functionality is missing, but it can be used to start a game... feel free to
improve it :)

=== license ===
All the code is released under the GNU General Public License (see COPYING).
