New page

Continuum gets the content for its F1 help menu from commands.hlp. As usual, an arena can override it to customize the help menu.

=== Format ===
The commands.hlp file is just a plaintext file with special control characters, '#' and '%'. The # character creates a new page, like so:
<pre># This is the title for the new page</pre>

The '%' character changes the color of the text. Changing the color prints all text that color until another color is specified. These are the possible colors:
* %W = White
* %B = Blue (public chat)
* %Y = Yellow (team chat)
* %G = Green (private messaging)
* %b = Brown (red, chat channels)
* %P = Purple
* %p = Pink

The '%' character also has a special use: dynamic key specifiers. For example, "%KB_BULLET" will print whatever key fires bullets and "%KEsc" will print whatever key brings up the game menu. The best place to look for these key specifiers is the default commands.hlp file that comes with Continuum.
