As mentioned above, the data files can be found at http://camanis.net/tyrian/tyrian21.zip; download, extract, and place the resulting "tyrian21" directory in "/home/user/.opentyrian/".

e.g.:
Code:
mkdir /home/use/.opentyrian/
cd /home/use/.opentyrian/
wget http://camanis.net/tyrian/tyrian21.zip
unzip tyrian21.zip

Would one be safe in assuming, making a copy of the .opentyrian directory before updating would allow one to re-copy the data files back after updating? Or is teh new build using the data files in a new way?

I really like this game but if someone can give any hints to these questions I would be very glad.
A. How to change mouse/touchscreen sensitivity? Right now itīs not sensitive enough and I have to swipe couple of times to move it from side to side and it also sometimes warps absurdly. Using N900 keyboard on fast paced games is joke )

B. Is it possible to map esc key so that you can quit mission. Right now I can use ctrl-backspace to minimize window and kill it, but thatīs pretty barbarian. Also last time when I played couple of stages i could even kill it :|

My problem is that on the N900 my clicks are horribly inaccurate. I can't really navigate the menus, not even with the stylus.

I think a lot more work should still be done here... hope someone's feeling up to the task :/

I use the scandinavian layout, so this doesn't really work for me. And since I can't navigate the menus, I've never succesfully completed a key configuration.

Yeah, the touch screen is not helpful on the menu. In game, the mouse emulation also has a poor way of actually staying on the ship -- you have to lift up the stylus or your finger to "reset" after every few movements.

Still, pretty solid. The one question I have is: how do I get the thing to save? There seems to be nothing to indicate how to progress from the "enter name" screen. Pressing enter just makes the cursor blink faster, while pressing backspace leaves (shift+backspace deletes a letter...) and most other buttons seem to do nothing.

I did manage to trigger a save somehow by hammering all the keys on the N900 keyboard, but I have been unable to reproduce this success or determine what about it caused the save to go through.

Using the current version in extras-devel, btw.
