cant find much info on basics :/

i looked around a bit for things like controls....questing....NPCs....player....saves etc
and cant find much at all.....

controls is the main one...
1.) how do you chat?
2.) why is there no pause/menu?(i know pausing is bad but there should be a menu)

questing:
will there be questing? i see alot of people asking about it.

NPCs:
why is there none? im guessing to do with the server not syncing them etc.
if i add mods that add NPCs to the game will it bug up? or will they work?


player:
why is my character a default ugly girl?^^
can i change this?(without using commands)

saves:
this goes with players....
can i save my position?
can i save my character model?(might be in-valid question if the character is from a save file)

Mods:
when i host my server i cant seem to take mods from the server....it says something about
only press OK(or w.e) if you trust the server(its mine so i do) then it says it has synced
but when i joined there is no sign of the mods(its a simple body replacer) in my mods
folder i just seperate the files in the corresponding folders(meshes textures etc) but
when i check the Data folder of my game it does not show any DLed files.

is there a page that gets updated with basics like this? and more advanced things like what the MP supports?

1. "T"
2. Pausing in multiplayer? Think about it yourself how stupid that sound.

Yes there will be quests if people make quests.

Npc's and quests are not currently synced, so they have been removed as to not give the impression that they are synced. Both Npc's and quests will eventually be added once there synced.

Yes, you can do it if you script something yourself or you can choose one like the EX | Easy server setup.

No, you can't by default but there are scripts like EX | Easy server setup that saves your positions, items and gender.

Right now the mod support only supports .esp and .esm files.

I always keep it up to date myself: https://www.moddb.com/mods/vault-tec-multiplayer-mod
Or you can fork the git: https://github.com/Foxtacles/vaultmp

wow thanks for all the info.....by only supporting .esp and .esm :
can i make a esp/m that calls for meshes/items and it would work?
and back at the NPCs....does that mean if i add some via .esp/m they will disappear?
-thanks in advance-
can't wait for this to be finished ^^

If the objects and items are from the native/default game then yes but if they are from a mod then the answer is no.
They will not disappear and other people will see the NPC but if the NPC moves in your game or for a other player the NPC will not move for you or someone else. (Like if you kill the npc the npc is still alive in somebody else game)

You're welcome.

Two clips you will like:

Note: It's still under development and not added in the latest version from Vaultmp.

once again thanks for all the great info.....cant wait for the first questing release tho.
