Hotkeys

[thule]

So, apparently both the game manual and the settings menu lack hotkeys. So let's share what we find =)

Space - execute move orders / end turn
Tab - next city
Ctrl - during battle, to queue orders. You can move and then attack, if you just move in attack range unit won't attack. This is kind of important, but not mentioned anywhere.

I would really like to know if there is a hotkey for 'select next unit with move points'. Or one to execute orders without risk of ending the turn (come on, this is not a console, we don't need multiple things on one button).

Awesome, thanks for that bit of info. Will certainly come in handy, getting them to attack the proper enemy I hope!

Dat Ctrl hotkey... I've been setting my unit tactic to "hold position", moving within range of an enemy, and then putting my trust into the RNG gods this whole time...

A quick save hotkey is really what this game needs...

OMG that control key thing how could i missed that been really annoying me not being able to move then attack

Yes, usually you do SHIFT to queue orders... very confusing. This game really needs better popups and manual.

Thats some "need to know" info right there. Someone stickie this thread (or give us a complete manual!)

Thank you for sharing how to queue orders via the ctrl key. :)

I was doing a similar "hold position, pray to RNG gods" strategy as hema mentioned:

and the lack of control made me dread fighting. :/

F10 hides and shows the UI.
Just spent the last 10 minutes trying to figure out why the screen had nothing except the map shown.
