Alpha Colony VI RESOURCE.DAT file
What is RESOURCE.DAT? RESOURCE.DAT is a file which can be used in replacement
of many of the standard command line parameters, as well as for extended
features. Command Line parameters WILL override any RESOURCE.DAT settings.
The Format of the RESOURCE.DAT file is:
item setting
item setting
...
Where item refers to the config option such as "LockedBaud" and setting
refers to the parameter such as "19200". If any strings with multiple
words are used, they must be enclosed in double quotes("hello all"). Valid
Boolean Values include:
FALSE TRUE
OFF ON
0 1
F T
NO YES
Any of these may be used for any boolean flags on parameters.
Comments in the file are used by including a ; at the beginning of the line.
; This line is a comment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CheckTimeLimit : Boolean DEFAULT: TRUE
If you would like BRE to not check time limits, this must be set to FALSE.
The Door File is assumed to contain the MINUTES left. If your BBS creates
a door file with time in SECONDS, please see the next option.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
TimeLimitSeconds : Boolean DEFAULT: FALSE
If your door file sets the time left value in SECONDS, please set this
boolean to TRUE.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
LockedBaud : Number DEFAULT: 0
If you use a Locked Baud rate, set this value to the locked baud rate,
otherwise, this option is unnecessary. Value of 0 is treated as no locked
baud also.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ComN : Comport Description DEFAULT: none
You can set COM1 - COM8's parameters (base address and IRQ level) with
these resources. For example,
Com5 $3E8,5
would set up COM5 to run on IRQ 5 at base address hex 3E8. Be sure
not to put a space before or after the comma.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
SpecialEffects : Boolean DEFAULT: TRUE
If you would like Special Effects turned OFF (for Locked Baud Rates and
modems with large buffers, ie. High Speed Modems), set this to false.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Local : Boolean DEFAULT: FALSE
If you wish to force local play at all times, set this to TRUE.
