Arizona Sunshine has created a version of their game specifically for those in the location-based VR space. Read below for details on the Arizona Sunshine Arcade configuration.

CLEARING THE LEADERBOARDS

If not using the LocalLeaderboardNetworkFolderPath configuration option
Start the game with the -deleteleaderboards command line argument. The game will
automatically shut down. After this, remove the command line argument and start the game.
The leaderboards will be cleared. To edit command line argument in Steam, right click the
content, select Properties and click SET LAUNCH OPTIONS...

If using the LocalLeaderboardNetworkFolderPath configuration option
Remove all leaderboard files in the folder path configured with the
LocalLeaderboardNetworkFolderPath configuration option. Leaderboard files have names like
Leaderboard_HordemodeoneplayerSEASON1.save.

DIFFICULTY

Players can configure the difficulty in the menu, or when using AutoStart, it can be configured in

the configuration file (see below). In Easy difficulty (the default), the game will automatically load

a new clip after a few seconds, so players don’t have to learn the normal reload mechanic.

LATEST SCORE SAVING

The game stores the latest score in a number of locations. These “LastScore” files are

overwritten each time a horde mode session is completed. The files will be populated with the

local player’s score only, on each client that participates. All with the same content, for

convenience, multiple files are stored with different names:

LastScore.txt: saved after each horde mode session
LastScore_LEADERBOARD_NAME.txt: saved after a session in that specific hordemode level is played

The directories in which the LastScore files are stored are:

Next to the executable
C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\LocalLow\Vertigo Games\ArizonaSunshine
All directories added to the LastScoreAdditionalSaveDirectories configuration option

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

Arizona Sunshine Arcade can be customized in various ways using the configuration file
(Config.txt). The configuration file can be found in the game’s installation folder\ArizonaSunshine_Data\StreamingAssets. To find the game’s installation folder in Steam,
right click the content, select Properties, go to the LOCAL FILES tab and click BROWSE
LOCAL FILES...

Using a different configuration file

The name of the configuration file that is loaded can be changed via command line arguments.

The game will look for the configuration file with the given name in the path specified above. For

example, to load the configuration file Config2.txt instead of the default Config.txt, add the

following command line argument:

-configfile Config2.txt

Overriding configuration options

Configuration options configured in the configuration file can be overridden via command line

arguments. For example, to override IsMultiplayer to “yes” and NumberOfPlayers to 2, add the

following command line arguments:

-IsMultiplayer yes -NumberOfPlayers 2

An explanation of the various configuration options:

ForceEnableRotation
If configured as “yes”, and playing on Vive or WindowsMR, the “rotate left” and “rotate right” buttons are enabled. If configured as “no” you can only rotate by physically rotating. This is defaulted to “no”, because players often accidentally reload instead of rotating, and vice versa.
