This screen provides an overview of games currently playing and those about to start. Our game control software is built around the idea of continuous game flow. Operators are able to maximise their throughput by adding new players at any time.

Continuous Game Flow
Continuous game flow allows you to put a new group into the arena, while a game is already in progress. This means that the group doesnt have to wait in line to have a game, providing faster through-put, happier customers and a better turnover for you.

Starting a new game when there are other players already in the areas is no problem, the operator simply activates the new packs, and then hits start on the game screen (or hand held remote). The new players will then start their own game.

After the game duration has elapsed the game will automatically finish, shutting down only its own packs and leaving other players to continue. The finished game score is then printed, showing only those players in the game.

Multiple Teams
Typically when a game is created there are two teams for each group. If required, the game control software can create a game consisting of three or more teams. Each team is provided with a different color and each team is scored separately.

Scoring
The game control software manages the printing of each groups game scores. The printout displays statistics for both the players and the teams. In addition a worm graph provides a visual display of the scores throughout the game. These score sheets are printed automatically when a game is finished, ready for the players when they come out of the arena.

This screen enables operators to view their equipment in much greater detail than in the game screen. Here the status of individual phasers and control stations can be viewed and controlled. Although not generally used during normal operation, this screen does provide detailed information about each phaser, such as low battery indication.

Equipment Screen

Score Screen
Our animated score screen (shown to right) is able to display real time game scores to friends and family waiting in the lobby area. Individual players scores are listed, along with updates on who is currently winning the game. The game worm line graph shows the progress of games as they unfold. When multiple games are in play, the score screen is able to cycle between each individual game.

Remote Control Functionality
A fantastic feature of the Delta Strike system is that the game control software works with our remote control. i.e. The operator can change the gun status using the remote control and the software is updated automatically.

Control Station Device Control
Using the control station, our game control software has the unique ability to turn devices within the arena on and off at specific times during the game. Once a timetable has been generated in the software, device switching is achieved by relays contained within the control station units. This functionality is especially useful for fog generators where the fog is timed with the starting of games.

Game Music
Delta Strike has its own royalty free music which is saved on the game control computer. Whenever a game starts and stops, this music will also start and stop in synchronization. Additionally, when the game finishes a pre-recorded "Game over, please return" message is played over the sound system.

Game music can be changed at any time by selecting a new music file or playlist on the game control PC. Supported formats include .wav, .mp3, .wma.

Membership Database
Delta Strikes rich membership features are managed from this screen. From here operators are able to activate and disable membership accounts, change members details, issue new membership tags, etc.

Marketing activities also benefit from a well organised customer database.

Radio Configurable Phaser Settings
With Delta Strike equipment its easy to change the way phasers operate. The game control software is able to send new operating rules to each phaser through the radio network. These operating rules may include things like: points per hit, shield level, fire speed, reload time etc.

Our default game settings are configured so that it takes about three quick hits to tag another player. In some situations operators may decide to reduce this back to the good old-fashioned one shot, one tag system. This can be done quickly and easily through our software.

Upgrading Phaser Software
Updating the software loaded on each phaser is easy with Delta Strike. New software can be uploaded to phasers without the need to even open the phaser case. When a new software version becomes available, operators can choose to simply download this from our web site, and beam it to each gun through the radio system.
