		INSTALLATION GUIDE
		
		(If all else fails, import manu)
		
		
	To begin with, you will need to download and install ActivePython, as well 
	as registering the Python WSH dll. To download Python for windows, go to
	https://www.activestate.com/activepython/downloads/ 
	and download the appropiate version of Python for your computer. 
	
	If you are on a x64 bit computer, you will also need to install the pywin32
	libriaries found at:
	http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/
	
	
	After the installation is complete, you need to REGISTER the python 
	scripting DLL. Note, this should be done automaticcly for i386(32 bit)
	systems, but x64 users will need to manually register them. Open a 
	command terminal (START>RUN> type, cmd) and change directory to the
	following : C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\win32comext\axscript\client\
	
	Once in that directory, then issue the command:
	python pyscript.py
	
	Which will complete the registration of the DLL for you.
	
	Now, you should be able to open MUSHclient, and the Achaea.mcl world file 
	without incidents!
	
	
		* * THIS NEXT STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE PROPER RUNNING OF THE SYSTEM * *
	
	Go to the menu FILE>GLOBAL PREFERENCES. UNCHECK THE BOX of 'Auto connect at 
	world start'. Click on the timers tab, and 	change the number in the scrollbox
	to 0 (zero).
	

	After loading the world, before entering your characters name at login, go
	to:
	
	GAME>CONFIGURE>SCRIPTING
	
	Make sure that the pull down menu that says 'Scripting language' has Python 
	as its value. If not, you must change it to Python for this system to work.
	
	Below that in the box labeled 'Script file', click the BROWSE button to search
	for and select the Achaea.pys file.
	
	Click okay after it loads.
	
	
	BEFORE connecting to Achaea, check that no Errors popped up on the
	screen. If you see a message that looks like 
	
	
	---- RACS(Rakons Achaean Combat System)   ----
	
	---- Revision: 6.1c - $                   ----
	
	---- SCRIPT COMPILED SUCCESFULLY          ----
	

	ELSE, if you see anything printed to screen noting '<SCRIPT ERROR:>'
	that means something went wrong attemping to load the pys file. In 
	this case, read the error presented and see if you know what it is 
	stating, or if you can fix it. Generally, it is a simple fix such
	as installing python.
	
	If you recieve following Error -2147221005 occurred when finding CLSID
	of scripting language "Python": , please be sure that you followed the
	instructions at the top of this page. You must first register the DLL
	of Active Python on your computer. 	
	
	
	When you have no errors, you're ready to proceed. If you DID recieve
	errors, try to rectify the situation based on the information given.
	If you cannot, (and still wish to use the system) try visiting the
	MUSHclient forums (http://www.mushclient.com/scripts/forum.php?bbsection_id=1)
	Email, IM, or MSG me so I may try and help fix the issue. SAVE THE
	ERROR MESSAGE, as it's the only way I'll be able to help. Also, if 
	asking for help on the MUSHclient forums, it would be beneficial to
	post the script error, when asking how to solve the issue.
	

-----------

	The next step is now the setup command. proceed to type into the command
	prompt, 'racs_setup'. Without the ''s. That will (should) start a GUI
	setup process to set the intial values of the system. IT will ask
	question's such as, your character's name, have focus, insomnia, a 
	tree tattoo...ect. These values (aside from name) CAN BE CHANGED in the 
	same manner later on. (By issuing the 'racs_setup' command). As well,
	in game factors may change these settings, such as getting a tree tattoo
	inked, and typing tattoos to register it. The system would (should)
	then enable the tree curing teirs.
	
	After all the questions's are answered, the wizard will let you know, 
	and at this time I suggest you first SAVE the world, and settings so 
	that you'll not have to do that again. Afterwards, connect to Achaea in
	the usual manner (Hit the connect button, type character name, password)
	After getting into Achaea, RACS will attempt to setup a few basic 
	commands for you, to try and prevent any issues of 'THIS !@%$ doesn't
	work!!'. This includes setting the proper screenwidth, as well as
	configuring the prompt to the fullest. 
	
	After these steps are complete, its now YOUR turn to do some manual
	work! Type the following, so that the system may register their
	values. First, though I suggest :
		Putting defenses up
		Filling at LEAST three pipes, with the three seperate herbs
			(this system only makes use of three pipes, and will not manage
			more.) Skullcap, Elm, Valerian
			It does not matter what order or what pipe they go in. The 
			system (should) register the numbers automaticly next.
		Type Enable
		
	**NOTE** The system does rely on pipelist, so not having this ability
	may make a few things not work.		
	If you do not have pipelist, then you'll need to configure the pipes 
	yourself. After filling the pipes, that means emptying them all out
	and then reputting fresh herbs in them, the puff counts will be at 10.
	
	The pipes are:
	pipe1--Skullcap
	pipe2--Elm
	pipe3--Valerian
	
	Go through the following in order to get the pipes working. 
	
	In the commandline type:
	/world.SetVariable("pipe1", "<your SKULLCAP pipe NUMBER here")
	/world.SetVariable("pipe2", "<your ELM pipe NUMBER here")
	/world.SetVariable("pipe3", "<your VALERIAN pipe NUMBER here")
	
	/world.SetVariable("skullcap_puffs", "10")
	/world.SetVariable("elm_puffs", "10")
	/world.SetVariable("valerian_puffs", "10")
	
	And that should be it, for pipes!
		
	Now, execute the following if all of the above went well.
		(qsc|sc|score)			-To set health/mana defaults, ect
		ppi				-Set pipe numbers, remaining puff counts
		elist				-Set elixer and venom counts
		stat				-List sipping values, making sure they're set
		
		
	Congrats!! That SHOULD be all. For further reading, and more in depth
	information, execute 'shelp' which will bring up a menu of files that
	might help you in understanding the system.
	
	Have fun!!
