NEXUS: Hot Key List
By Opt_0™
A Simple Hot key list. There was no guide list on Steam. So I threw one together real fast. Nothing fancy. I'll return and correct it if need be, haven't had a chance to test them all again. So this is "Currently Under Construction", and it may also turn into a bit of a tips guide. I just wanted a place for myself and others to quickly check some controls through Steam overlay while in-game. I hope this helps anyone. Put it in your favorites and it's easy to find in game. (Multiplayer doesn't seem to work at the moment, so I can't detail those controls. I'd like to find a solid fix if anyone has ANY INFO pop it in the comments. Also, getting this Steam Version to Run in 1366x768 Resolution. Thanks for any help.)

@Idiocrat Supreme Still happy it's helping others. I always meant to clean it up a bit more but have just never had the time. I personally still love this game although it's been a long time. Fly Safe Commander, 07.

Thank you for listing it out. This works better for me than the manual, and key map diagrams aren't always easy to use.

Почему мы должны в миссий погоня переключать русский язык на англиский ,,,пусть разработчики игры фиксят этот баг,,,ведь у всех она вылетает при старте,,где пачь ???

Как избежать вылета в миссии "погоня" :
У меня это самое начало миссии.
Нужно перед запуском миссии переключиться в меню на английский язык.
На английском миссия стартует нормально. Сохраняемся. Выходим из игры.
Включаем опять в меню русский. Продолжаем играть.

Sorry to rain on your parade but you could just have downloaded the manual from the store page http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/6420/manuals/manual_en.pdf?t=1458903247

Too bad that the time of printed manuals are long gone..ah the luck when you got a new game in the mail with a newly printed manual.. ah the scent !

I guess with the very recent update and some tender love and care from a new owner, looks like this game is being updated and Multiplayer works again. I was able to set a skirmish for myself, and there are options to play Co-op against enemy AI. I still have some relearn and testing to do. But yes Multiplayer works again as far as I know.
