How do I get a ship to manually move?


I have been playing GC1 since the OS/2 version and to be honest, I can't figure out to move the ships in this version. Can someone please help me?

After selecting the ship with a left-click, I usually just right-click on its destination. I think there are keyboard shortcuts, but I don't recall them off-hand (arrow keys maybe?).

Arrow keys yes.

Would be nice if those were mapped to scroll the window, like practically every other strategy game in existence.

I've no issue with the window not scrolling. Assigning movement locations is the same as assigning targets for attack: Left click to select your unit/fleet, then right click on the location/target.

This also works if you left click your unit, and right click in the mini-map...or left click the mini-map then right click on the main screen for a slightly more accurate placement.

Scrolling? Don't need not stinking scrolling!

Turn off caps lock and you can move via the keypad.

Num Lock, actually. At least on the PC version.
