"T" Key
The most important thing you should know is learning to use the key "T". The key "T" may be useful for two functions - sending messages to another player and execute a bind
Chat
To send a message, type "T", writer your message and press "ENTER". To run a command press "T" plua "/" them later the commans with paramatrs and later press "ENTER", or else to execute a command press "'".
Team chat
Team chat is enough important if you are playing with equips, to organize clan macths. So, this have been implemented in AssaulCube. It's easy to use, press, "T" and later press "%" and your words. Later to send a message press "ENTER". What you typed could appear in color blue, it's meaning that only your team will see.
If you think writer with "&" isn't easy, you can simply make a binf to run automatic like: /bind "Y" "saycommand %". Com isso, Quando você pressionar Y, o comando "&" será automáticamente concluído.
Names
Of course, learning the usage of T will lead us to the first basic steps - changing your nickname. By default, your alias / nickname is "unarmed".
A nickname is what people will know you by. Your nickname can be as simple as your first name - it can be pretty much anything!
To change your nickname to Mario, you will need to execute /name "Mario" in your console.
Since many players are in clans, they will usually have a name extension that shows which clan they are in - a clan tag. Clan tags usually go in front of one's real nickname but can in cases be in the end - such as ^MD for the MD clan.
Weapons
The weapon choice may differ between Gamemodes, but Capture the flag and deathmatch games are usually composed of all available weaponry. Yet, you can only choose one of the four main weapons - Assault Rifle, SMG, Sniper and Shotgun. To do that, you have to press B and select the right weapon. Next time you spawn, you will own that weapon.
Purpose
The purpose of this game is to kill (frag, gib). A gib is the fragging of an enemy that causes their bodies to explode. Usually, making one gib will award you with an extra frag, making gibbing more efficient than normal fragging. In AssaultCube, gibs can be made through the use of a knife, grenade or a sniper rifle (when shot at the head of the enemy).
All other methods will frag your enemy.
