General
The factory module is for creating titan designs, saving and modifying
them, and repairing them after battles. Teams buy titans in the
headquarter module.
There are two executables located in the progs directory. You can
access them via the Vicious Byte Menu located under Start/Programs.
factoryW is a windowed version, whereas factoryX is a DirectX
fullscreen version. Both versions have the same functionality.
The factory is the tool to create a great variety of different titan designs.
This is supported by an easy to use interface and an extensive Online
Help, which is accessible at any time through the F1 key.
With this version of the factory, it is possible to store 90 titans in each
"weight category"--a total of 5 * 90 = 450 titans. Later versions of the
factory will be able to store an unlimited quantity of titans.
Besides the creation of titans, the factory is able to load each team's
titans. This opens the door to ongoing campaigns in which the teams are
able to repair their damaged Titans or reconstruct them to special, unique
designs. The factory hereby administers the money of the team and
considers jock damage control and business skills during repair.
