How to play Sridu

1. Pick a modeTap it on the start page. For X01 the chips 301, 501 and 701 open the setup with that score straight away.
2. Set the rulesEvery mode has its own, explained below. Legs and sets come on top: one leg, first to 2, first to 3, or any number up to 99.
3. Add playersUp to six players, a bot with an average from 15 to 110, or an online opponent from the lobby. From three players on you can form teams. The switch is always there and turns on from the third player.
4. StartChoose who throws first: the top of the list, a bull-off or random. After every leg the first throw moves on to the next player.

• HandicapsEach player can get their own rules, so a beginner and a pro can play a fair match. In X01 that is their own starting score, check-out and double in; in other modes a head start. Tap Handicap next to the player.
• BotsA bot plays by the same rules as everybody. It aims like a human, and the dart lands with a realistic scatter around the target. Whatever it hits is what counts.
• TeamsA team shares one score and its players throw in turn. When teams come on, the list is split alternately; tap the letter next to a player to change their team. In games of exactly two sides (Tic-Tac-Toe, Connect Four) teams turn on by themselves from three players, and for teams of different size you choose: every side throws equally often, or every player does. The handicap of the team’s first player applies.
• Bull-offEverybody throws one dart at the bull. A magnified view shows the distance in millimetres, and the closest one starts.

• LanguageNine languages. Applies to this browser.
• Throw suggestionIn X01, the checkout suggestion and the marker on the board. In Around the Clock and similar modes the target always stays marked, because there it is part of the game.
• Check throwsWhen the detection is unsure about a dart, it is marked orange, and a tone and the caller ask you to check it. Off: whatever was measured simply counts.
• End the visit by itselfThree darts counted and nothing happens: the Next button fills up for 15 seconds and then moves on. Off: the game waits until the darts are pulled.
• Pass over idle playersNo dart and no input for 60 seconds: the player is skipped, so an abandoned board doesn’t hold up a match.
• Camera scanShows how the cameras work out the position of every dart: the measured axes shoot across the board.
• Sounds[Placeholder: sound on/off and the two sound styles, Subtle and Machine.]
• Animations[Placeholder: what the animations setting changes.]
