Dream Flight Adventures - v2.0 Beta Test
Some of you may have heard of Dream Flight Adventures. We're a bit different from most of the bridge sims in the market today: we make bridge sims for the educational arena (schools, museums, and community centers), and we have simulators permanently installed in several locations scattered around the US and one in Venezuela.
We're working on a big update to our simulator software, and we'd like to invite everyone in the bridge sim community to take it for a spin as part of our Beta Test.
If you're interested in playing with it, just head on over to http://dreamflightadventures.com/dfa-2-0-pre-release-testing/ for all the juicy details.

A few notes of interest:
- Our goal is to promote critical thinking, teamwork, leadership, and problem solving by bringing epic bridge sims to students everywhere.
- Our simulators are designed to be game-mastered by a "Flight Director" who runs the mission behind the scenes.
- Our controls run a Local Area Network (LAN). Macs, PCs, and iOS are currently supported. Android support will follow.
- Our controls are designed for children (elementary and middle schools, ages 8-14 are our sweet spot), but we've run missions with older youth and adults as well.

I've never tested the software on Linux, but you're right, we use Unity, so I went ahead and made a Linux build for you. The download link is on the Beta Test page.
This Linux build is entirely untested (I don't have a Linux machine to test it on at the moment), so hopefully it works. I very much look forward to hearing how it runs for you.
Enjoy!
It starts now, and i got to the main menu. However, I don't see the access code on the mainscreen. Not sure if it is a specific problem of the linux version, at least there are no obvious signs of a graphics glitch.
An access code in the format of XX-XX-XX-XX will be displayed at the top of the screen, slightly right of center.
Select the desired Crew Station from the list.
The Viewscreen supports some basic keyboard controls to make testing easier:
To fly around, hold down the + and – keys to accelerate and decelerate, respectively. Use the Arrow Keys to steer.
Now it is strange, I just tried it again (accidentally with network deactivated this time), and after a few seconds the screen changes and I see "access code xx-xx-xx-xx" (literally) which can't be right, especially, as x is not available on the on-screen keyboard for the access code.
I then reactivated wlan, and after a restart, I only get to the "Training mode enabled" view again.
Can you try launching it again (with your network active) to cause the failure to occur again, and then send me the contents of the log file that it generates? The log file will be at ~/.config/unity3d/Dream Flight Adventures/Dream Flight Adventures/Player.log. That might help me develop a solution.
Thanks!
but it seems that this part could be interesting: Thank you, I hope this will help.
