This wiki contains a page that explains how to set [[Mumble]] up for E-Uni use. | |||
Once you have it running, you will see that Mumble has a number of channels ... one for each E-Uni campuses, some fleet channels, and some specialized channels. Most of the time, you will join the channel for your campus. If you join a fleet, you will switch to the fleet channel for the duration of the exercise, and then back to your home campus channel. | |||
If you have a specific question, the xxxxx channel is monitored by E-Uni specialists dedicated to helping new players. You can jump to that channel and wait for someone to join you, then ask your question. | |||
