Help


We have compiled a reference to help you find your way around Everplanes. This section is being expanded during development, so you may wish to check back for the latest info.

Launching


To launch Everplanes, please login to your account, download and install Everplanes for your platform. A network connection is currently required to launch the game (we are working on an offline mode).

Everplanes Folder


Sometimes, it may be necessary to locate the Everplanes folder on your computer. The location depends upon whether you are running the Mac, Windows or Linux version.

On Mac OS X, /Users/Username/Library/Application Support/Everplanes
On Windows, /Documents and Settings/Username/Application Data/Everplanes
On Linux, ~/Everplanes

If you are experiencing technical difficulties, we will sometimes ask you to send us your Everplanes log file. This is named 'everplanes.log' and may be located in the 'log' subfolder.

Backing Up


It is currently possible to backup your world whilst the game is not running by taking a copy of the 'world1' folder which is located under the 'worlds' subfolder of Everplanes. You can restore your world (again, whilst the game is not running) by restoring this folder.

Resetting Everything


If you wish to completely reset your installation (you will lose your world and settings!), simply delete the contents of the Everplanes folder whilst the game is not running. Next time you launch the game, it will re-build a default installation.
