LineWars II - SDL3 port
=======================

Run it
------
Double-click linewars2.exe. Keep SDL3.dll & game.dat in this folder beside it;
the game reads game.dat from its own directory & needs SDL3.dll to start.
Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. No install, no runtime to download.

Controls
--------
  Numeric keypad   fly (8/2 pitch, 4/6 yaw, 7/9/1/3 diagonals, 0 & . roll)
  Alt              fire laser
  Ctrl             fire missile
  = / -            throttle up / down
  F1               help,  Esc  quit to menu

Every one of those keys is rebindable, & the resolution, volume & font are set,
from the menu's "Configure LineWars II" screen (the Control, Graphics & Sound
tabs). Your choices save to settings.dat, written here next to the .exe.

Resolution
----------
The Graphics tab offers 640x480 (the original size), 1280x960, 1920x1440 &
fullscreen. 640x480 is pixel-for-pixel the 1994 output; the larger modes render
the 3-D scene at higher detail & resize the window to match.
