I really tried to play this, but what you describe in the readme here didn't work for me in game :(. Each time I managed to build a node (I think), and after I had the message "a junction is required" or something like that. It's a shame, it looked really cool. Tell me if you update the UI!

Sorry i think was me not writing everything in the help, ill update it.

Game starts with one node at center of screen (coordinates 0, 0, 0), node 0 is selected by default.
Tab key cycle selects the existing nodes.
In your case Tab to select node 1, mouse over the junction button on the left menu and build it (b).

Latest node must have a junction to be able to create a new link.

Hope this helps

hmmm , this should work on any graphic card with at least opengl 2
you can try and edit the configuration file eterlink.baf to make the game fullscreen

anyone else having this problem ?

Feels like a graphing application :p
Not too clear on how to clear the game

Sounds interesting but I can't figure out how to play.

I also had a problem inserting values, I tried your fullscreen suggestion but no difference.

Problem with the mouse over is now fixed on windows, was not working because i linked an older version of a static library.

Sorry, all is working fine now.
Need to figure out how to make a better help.

I just couldn't figure this out man. You may be able to patch this up a little bit since in its current state people are a bit confused. ON THE OTHER HAND, i love wireframes so that always gets an upvote from me :)

I tried really hard but I couldn't get it to work. Always getting that a junction is required. :(

Tab key selects the nodes.

In you case use Tab key, top left you should have node: 1
Mouse over junction in the left menu and press b to build it.

Continue like this to add more nodes.

It written in the manual, seems im not good at explaining :(

Ok, i tried, i tried very hard and this should be a thing http://abload.de/img/clipboard01u8utx.png

I had some problem understanding the position of a vortex in the 3d space, modern AAA games accustomed me to monodimensional environment.

Joking aside, mostly the control need some polishing.
