    4344Orxonox is programmed by many programmers at the same time. To synchronize the work and to make it available for all, we've got a central subversion server (subversion is a versioning system; the newer form of cvs). Most Linuxes already have svn (subversion) in their software repository (gentoo: portage tree, debian: apt-system), for Windows you need to install tortoise svn, which you can get here: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ [[br]]

    6162== 9. Finding your Way as a Developer ==

    7273== 10. Understanding Orxonox ==
    73 It definitely takes some time to understand the Orxonox source code. The best way to get your questions answered is to post them on the development-mailinglist. Even better is to just go to the developers and ask specific questions... Once you know where to find which functions, you will want to read some more about special topics in the source files themselves: we use doxygen to comment the code, so you will find comments for every class/function. There are also [wiki:ModulesDescription module descriptions] which we are currently working on.
