ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

If you install FireTeam 2200 to floppy disks instead of a hard drive,
the first time you play you must set your configuration.

	If you installed to two disks, type FIRETEAM TWO to set your
	FIRECON.FIG configuration file to the proper setting the first time
	you play.

	If you installed to three disks, type FIRETEAM THREE to set your
	FIRECON.FIG configuration file to the proper setting the first time
	you play.

If you ever want to change your FIRECON.FIG configuration file to the
setting for hard drive use, type FIRETEAM ONE.

Once you have set your configuration file, you do not need to type
ONE, TWO, or THREE unless you want to change the configuration.


PLAYING WITH DISSIMILAR DRIVES

As the manual states, you may play FireTeam 2200 from 2 floppy drives,
provided both have a minimum of 720K capacity.  However, if the two drives
are dissimilar in type (e.g. one 5.25" drive and one 3.5" drive),
you will need to perform an extra step to completely install the
product to disks you can play from.

After you have installed the product onto 2 (or 3) disks of one type,
you will need to copy the files from the Program Disk onto a disk of
the "other" type.

For example, if you have four 5.25" installation disks, and your system
has one 1.2M 5.25" drive and one 1.44M 3.5" drive, you should install
the game from the installation disks to two 3.5" disks.  Then you should
copy the 3.5" Program Disk to a 5.25" Program Disk.  You may then play
FireTeam 2200 using the 5.25" Program Disk in Drive A and the 3.5" Construct
Disk in Drive B.

If you need to get even trickier because of your particular configuration,
you can install and copy files at will, provided you obey the following
guidelines when you are done:

The Program Disk must always be placed in Drive A.
The Simulation Disk (if used) and the Construct Disk must always be
placed in Drive B.

The contents of the disks after installation must be:

REAL-TIME vs. TURN BY TURN UPDATES

Learning FireTeam may be easier if you play using the "Manual Update
Mode" for Updates.  In Manual Update Mode, your enemies are "frozen"
and their actions do not take place until you press <F9> to Update
the game.

To use Manual Update Mode, after the scenario has begun, press <Alt-U>
until the Command Menu indicates that you are in Manual Update Mode.
For more information about the Update Cycle, read the "Administrative
Commands" section of the manual.

USING ADLIB COMPATIBLE SOUND CARDS

This version of FireTeam 2200 explicityly supports only the AdLib card,
not compatibles.

FireTeam 2200 does not automatically install sound drivers to support
your sound card when you play.  You must install the sound driver for
your card before you play the game.  To play FireTeam 2200 using AdLib
"compatible" cards may require that you install the sound driver for your
"compatible" card before you play the game.

If you have difficulties using your card, call our customer service
department on 415 824-3112 for possible solutions.

SETTING INITIAL OBJECTIVES

Whenever you select your own FireTeam for a scenario instead of the
default FireTeam, you should examine and possibly re-set the task
and objectives of your FireTeam members.

This is because the computer gives your FireTeam members the inital
orders given to the Default FireTeam for that scenario.

These orders might not make sense for your units, because they were
intended for the Default FireTeam units.

SETTING OBJECTIVES ON WATER LOCATIONS

Air units and Hovercraft Tank units may set movement objectives on
water locations (rivers, lakes, etc.).  However, Infantry units and
other Tank units may not set movement objectives on water locations,
since they cannot move into those locations.
