VGA Planets - PLIST 2.4

PLIST 2.4 is an alternative shiplist for the game VGA Planets and PHost.

A word ahead

Thank you for downloading PLIST 2.4.

This documentation explains the PLIST 2.4 and helps you how to install the shiplist correctly. All distributed configuration settings are optimized for this list. You can totally mess up the game, if you manipulate some of the PLIST 2.4 dedicated settings.

As a host remember the universal rule: Always make backups!

You can find some important hints for hosts at: http://www.geocities.com/the_vagabund/HFHost/hfhost.html
