SpellForce 2 - Anniversary Edition

SpellForce 2 - Anniversary Edition

[Solved] Does this game have hotkeys? (It does) And how do I get health bars to appear above each unit? (You can't)
Edit:This game has some hotkeys, but you can't get health bars to appear above your units.

So I'm going through the game's campaign cuz it's free for the weekend, and I've had to use the mouse for building, attacking, and casting spells, and it's kinda annoying. Warcraft 3 came out years before this game and it had an intuitive, robust set of hotkeys, and I'd expect this game to have decent hotkeys too, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I mean, I know how to use the tab key and I can hotkey control groups, but where are the rest of the hotkeys? Am I missing them or are they just not there?

I'd also like to have the health bars permanently hover above each unit. I know if I move my cursor over a unit, the health bar appears, but I need permanent health bars. That information makes healing and micro-ing much easier.

it's a bit mindblowing that Spellforce doesn't have any key bindings options, and there is no menu or whatever that tells you what the default keys are.

There's a manual.pdf in game's doc folder that has the hotkeys.

Okay, so I found the manual online here. Hotkeys are pages 23-25. Kinda disappointed there are no hotkeys to build structures, but it's better than nothing.

The manual doesn't mention any way to toggle permanent health bars. I'm really surprised the game doesn't have this feature.
