What the heck are the controls? i get killed wicked fast. the mouse-tracking speed is way to fast, and there should be an aiming system built not only into the mouse, but into the keys. Food for your thoughts!!!!

I presume you are talking about Lugaru?

no, i am talking about S.O.S.(':D') by the way, when i press v, the screen gets all chaotic. By the way how do you (1) get body parts, and (2) how do you end a "level"?[/i]

I don't mean to be sarcastic(wait, yes i do ' ') but perhaps you don't know the controls because you didn't read the readme?
Getting killed immediately is not the result of any imbalance in the game, rather its because you aren't quick enough.
The reason you can't get body parts is probably because there ARE none.
You end a level by beating all the mobs in it.
V should enter a bullet time mode though.. if it doesn't you may have found a bug.

when i kill all the guys, nothing happens. by the way, i can't open/save maps.

There are several possiblities:
1. You haven't actualy killed everyone, press tab and see if anyone else is on the minimap.

2. You aren't waiting long enough, if you stand still when you kill the last enemy it should end faster.

If none of those work then press shift-k and it will put you too the next level.

To open a map, enter the console, press the ` key to enter the console, then type map mapname.
To save, enter the console and type save mapname.

Oh, how very strange in that it sounds JUST LIKE THE CONTROLS FOR LUGARU. *cough* Maybe it's because they use the same engine, hm? *rolls eyes*

-Fournine, the sarcastic

first off, i don't actualy have the Lugaru beta (though i do want it, and i don't know where to find it), and there are a couple "bugs" w/ SOS. once i killed everyone on the "cool" map (including the ninth player), and the seagull/albatross thing, i just waited there, and eventually set about modifying the level. anyway, the point is, i didn't go onto the next level. the Shift+k thing worked once, but after that it just said "loading" for about a second, and then i was back into "megablank". There is no mini-map; tab just sets it into third player. i probably sound stupid but those controls aren't in the Readme. by the way, what is c for? thae camera can't move at all.

Cool? There's a level in Lugaru called cool ... I've never played S.O.S., is there any relation between the two?

SOS is in very early development (haven't worked on it much since leaving Stanford) so it does not automatically go to the next level.

No, there is no relation between the two Cool levels.

There is a reason that when you go left in relation to the camera your gun stays pointed straight ahead, its so you can go one way while shooting at a enemy who is behind or too the side of you.

How do you pick up body parts? I didn't see anything in the manual about it ...

As has already been stated, you can't yet.
