elements of an RTS. Players can choose from 2 unique races, aliens and humans.
Players on both teams are able to build working structures in-game like an
RTS. These structures provide many functions, the most important being
spawning. The designated builders must ensure there are spawn structures or
other players will not be able to rejoin the game after death. Other
structures provide automated base defense (to some degree), healing functions
and much more...
Player advancement is different depending on which team you are on. As a
human, players are rewarded with credits for each alien kill. These credits
may be used to purchase new weapons and upgrades from the "Armoury". The alien
team advances quite differently. Upon killing a human foe, the alien is able
to evolve into a new class. The more kills gained the more powerful the
classes available.
The overall objective behind Tremulous is to eliminate the opposing team. This
is achieved by not only killing the opposing players but also removing their
ability to respawn by destroying their spawn structures.

short) aims to build upon id Software's Quake 3 source code release. The
source code was released on August 20, 2005 under the GPL. Since then, we have
been cleaning up, fixing bugs, and adding features. Our permanent goal is to
create the open source Quake 3 distribution upon which people base their games
and projects. We also seek to have the perfect version of the engine for
playing Quake 3: Arena, Team Arena, and all popular mods. This distribution of
the engine has been ported to many new platforms and has had a slew of new
features added, along with massive bug extermination.

information for display to the end-user. Because of this great interface,
this program can be executed on any OS supported machine and use the network
socket interface to connect back to apcupsd.
