Hi,

This is my first Ticket and I hope I do it all right. Just tell me if I miss something.

Forgon in the IRC told me to write a Ticket about it.

What I think could be done better: Moving around with the arrow keys is not very good when you use other keys (for example f1-f6) in the same time. Moving with the mose to the edge of the screen is not very fast because you will have to move your mouse back to the center after moving the map.

How would it be better?: Use the mouse to move the map but: you click your right mouse button and hold it down, while holding the right mouse button, you move your mouse in a direction. this will make the map move in this direction. This is not easy to use if you never did, but after 30 min of using this you will be a lot faster. When you have radar, the radar will still be faster for long distances, but only on big maps. I know this from an other RTS called CnC Generals (from EA).

The steps: 1) click the right mouse button (and hold, don't release it) 2) move the mouse slightly in one direction 3) release the right mouse button

A video where you can see the usage of both, clicking on the minimap and moving this the mouse together. You can only watch the first 30 sec, no need to watch more ;) youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CutLTu5gf0&list=PLtGvoQJjZNvuCi9PswKPB-g5PqMYJOxE_&index=12

While making this map movement your selected unit / building should stay selected, your mouse should not move on your screen, only the map. (like in CnC Generals)

If you have any question or need more information let me know.

Salutations Nod0n

Forgon should have known better.
