A total rewrite of [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1474002997]Longwelwind's Phi chat and trading mod.[/url]
[b]What does it do?[/b]
tl;dr: You can chat with other people and trade items with them
Phinix is a server-centric chat and trading client.
After connecting to a server, you can chat amongst everyone else online and open up item trades with them, too.
[b]... is that it?[/b]
Yup!
There are some other bits and pieces we'll be working on [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FPhinixTeam%2FPhinix%2Fprojects%2F2%23column-3931660]down the road[/url][github.com], but that is the essence of it.
[b]FAQ[/b]
[b]Can I trade modded items?[/b]
[i]Yes[/i], so long as the other player has the mod the item comes from.
[b]Is Phinix compatible with Phi servers?[/b]
[i]No[/i]. Phinix uses a completely different backend to Phi, so the two are incompatible with each other.
[b]Can I run both Phinix and Phi at the same time?[/b]
[i]Yes[/i], they won't overlap or cause any issues with each other.
[b]How do you colour/format text?[/b]
The [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.unity3d.com%2FManual%2FStyledText.html]Unity docs[/url][docs.unity3d.com] covers how you can do that with simple markup. (The size tag is disabled for everyone's sanity)
[b]What is the server address?[/b]
There are a few servers public servers to choose from:
[b]phinix.chat[/b], port [b]16200[/b] - The main server based in Sydney, Australia
[b]eu.phinix.chat[/b], port [b]16200[/b] - The EU server based in the UK
[b]134.175.98.104[/b], port [b]16200[/b] - The community-run Chinese server, based in mainland China
We keep an up-to-date list in the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2Fd4Y5xks]official Discord server[/url][discord.gg] in the #welcome channel
[b]Can I set up my own server?[/b]
Of course! Check out the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FPhinixTeam%2FPhinix%2Fwiki%2FHosting-a-server]wiki page[/url][github.com] for instructions on how to set one up yourself. We still recommend using a public server for a more interesting experience, but you're free to do what you want.
[b]Having issues?[/b]
There's a few ways you can get help:
1. Send us a message in the official [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2Fd4Y5xks]Phi/Phinix Discord[/url][discord.gg] (Usually resolved within the day)
2. Lodge a bug report directly through the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FPhinixTeam%2FPhinix%2Fissues]GitHub issue tracker[/url][github.com] (Easy to track!)
Please [b]don't use the workshop page comments to ask for help or report bugs[/b]. The workshop isn't really designed for that kind of thing and it's hard to keep track of. The methods above are the easiest ways for us to help you.
