Throughout this FAQ you will see the words "Index Number" and "Search
Field". These are to help you locate certain sections of the FAQ, as
listed in the index. Use Ctrl + F on most Word Processors and in Internet
Explorer to use the Find/Locate command.

Example: If you are looking for The section "Game Setup - Settings", type
'i-a' into the Find box. 'i' is the Index Number and 'a' is the
section
number. This will take you to the beginning of the section.

Search Field: i-a

Language
========
This is which langauge you want to run the game in. It's suggested you run
CM4 in your home language.

Currency
========
Choose either your local currency or the currency of the country you are
playing in (every major currency is included).
*BUG NOTE* In the unpatched version of CM4, the Ter skin does not have the
Euro symbol (?)

Wages
=====
Whether the game shows wage format in weekly, monthly or yearly. Note: this
does not effect how the wages are paid out. They are still paid on a weekly
basis.

Temperature
===========
Celsius, Farenheit or Kelvin - it really depends which side of the Atlantic
you live on (or whether you live in a science lab)

Database Size
=============
Your computer processor and RAM will determine what setting to use here.
The better your computer the quicker "Large" will run. Minimum spec computers
can also use the Large database, although it will sufficiently slow the game.

Auto-Save
=========
In the unpatched version of the game, it has a habit of crashing, so I'd
choose monthly. You can also disable Auto-Save if it annoys you too much.

Continue Game Timeout
=====================
This is how much time the game waits before continuing. If you remain inactive
the game will continue after the set amount of time.
