v1.0+ : example, to launch a Ho_One with your two players, “Mickael” and “Boris”, directly from command line, just create a shortcut with these command line parameters :

pydarts --localplayers=mickael,boris --gametype=local --selectedgame=Ho_One

Example, if most of time, you prefer to play Ho_One starting from 501 instead of 301, and that, most of time, you play it in 20 rounds instead of 10, “double in” enabled, just write in your pydarts.cfg :

[Ho_One]
startingat:501
max_round:30
double_in:True
split_bull:False
etc...

And that's it ! Every time you create a game it will suggest these options instead of pydarts' default ones.

v1.0+ : Starting with pyDarts v1.0, you can use keyboard to pass to next player, to give up game or to use backup turn. Respectively, use “space bar”, “escape” and “b” key to perform these actions.

v1.0+ : in all menus and in-game, use “f” key of double-click to toggle full screen to windowed and the other way around !

v0.9+ : if the default colorset do not suit to your taste, you may be interested by switching the colorset by another one. To do that, use the command line parameter –colorset=color_set_name instead of the default colorset, which is the clear one (–colorset=clear). You can add your own colorset by modifying the “include/ColorSets.py” file and adding your own.
the syntax of this file is python and can break your software !
If you want your colorset to be included to the project, feel free to send it to the developpers via discussion channels

v0.7+ : you can replace pyDarts sounds and images by your own, without having to replace original files ! To do that, create a folder called “sounds” or “images” in your $HOME/.pydarts folder. Put here your images with the same name than the original files, they will be used in place of the embedded ones

v0.7+ : you can have a custom sound playing when it is your turn to play ! To do that, create a folder called “sounds” or “images” in your $HOME/.pydarts folder. Put here your sound with the same name than the player name, using the OGG VORBIS sound format and with the extension “.ogg”, it will be used in place of the classic sound !
