▲The site is powered by Guacamole and [[collab-vm-server]]. The site features a chatroom, where users are able to type messages to each other. The purpose of the chat is to share ideas on what to do on the virtual machine, although it can be used for pretty much anything.
To take control of the virtual machine, you may need to register and login to the instance. You will receive a message in chat if so. Click the "Take Turn" button or click on the screen. You will be assigned a place in line. You'll then get control of the virtual machine when its your turn. You may end your turn at any time by pressing the "End Turn" button.
▲When you login to the website, you are given a [[Guest|generic, anonymous guest name]] (typically guest (string of 4-6 numbers)). Server owners can recompile the server with a different name, so it may be different depending on the CollabVM site you're using. You can change your name if you so desire (by clicking the "Change Username" button) or you can leave it as the default guest name.
To check who is currently taking a turn, you can scroll to the user list and look for any blue or yellow names. If their name has a blue background, that means they are currently in control of the virtual machine. If their name has a yellow background, this means they are currently waiting to take control of the virtual machine. If they have no color, that means they aren't doing anything
▲To check who is currently taking a turn, you can scroll to the user list and look for any blue or yellow names. If their name has a blue background, that means they are currently in control of the virtual machine. If their name has a yellow background, this means they are currently waiting to take control of the virtual machine. If they have no color, that means they aren't doing anything. When you press the Take Turn button or click/tap the screen, if someone is also taking a turn, you will receive a timer which indicates how long you have to wait.
'''Please note''': ''While the site is not explicitly for 18 and up, if you are under the age of 18, you need permission from your guardian, (or parent) as anyone can do anything on the virtual machines, including opening pornography and other NSFW things. There is a warning blur which blurs out the screen before you can see it.''
