Introduction
------------

This repository contains a program to generate a new board for
Pandemic Rising Tide.  The board is gameplay-identical to the
original, but the graphics are entirely abstracted and the board is
intended to be easier to play on.


Use
---

`make' will generate[1] many PostScript and PDF files.  You probably
want to use the PDFs.  Specifically:

If you have a printer capable of A3:

    board-pa3-bPageB.pdf         on A4
    board-pa3-bPageMT.pdf        on A3

If you have a printer capable of A4:

    pa4-bPageB               }  print one
    pa4-bPageM               }    of each
    pa4-bPageT               }      on A4

If you have a printer capable of A1 and want something you can fold in
three to paste onto a Z-shaped board to fit into the original A4 box:

   pa1m-bPageP               on A1, and cut at the indicated marks

If you have a printer capable of A1 and don't need that slight size
reduction:

   pa1-bPageP                on A1, and cut at the indicated marks

If you are in the US and can't print on sensible international paper
sizes, read this

[1] Source code and dependencies
--------------------------------

Source code is here:
  https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ian/git/pandemic-rising-tide.git/
  git://git.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/pandemic-rising-tide.git

You will, notably, need a working copy of plag-mangler, which is a
planar graph manipulation and layout program I wrote for this project.
  https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ianmdlvl/plag-mangler/

It has, in turn, quite a few dependencies.

The other direct dependencies of this repository should be readily
available on your distro.
