I figured it out and entered my serial as a coupon code during checkout. That was the detail I was missing.

RE: How to upgrade from the Battlefront version

Great to see that there's a discount for previous buyers. Will easily buy again just to have a Steam version and bypass the Battlefront activation foolery.

But I've read the above multiple times and don't see where I enter a previous S/N to get the discount. Where are the details?

Thank you!

Please Explain Docs

<t> I've been away from the game for a while. I just downloaded the latest update, and am not really sure which docs I'm supposed to look at to "re-learn" the game.<br/>

In the root folder of the game, there is a 72 page document entitled "what's new". Looks like it pretty much covers every ...

Click sound when using arrow keys to scroll

Any way to config this out?<br/>

Direct link is ultra slow for me, too. I'm at work on a huge pipe and getting 12kB/s - ~50min.

RE: New WitE Public Beta v1.04.28 Available!

The new manual looks excellent, and the 8.5"x11" format is perfect. Thanks much for taking the time to update it to the latest patch changes.

It's stuff like this that makes my $80 purchase justified!

RE: Pinned Supplement on Rule/Manual Changes?

For my money, I'd expect that all game changes would be reflected in the documentation with an updated manual included in each patch.

I would much rather have a living manual than wade through an outdated pdf and any number of addendum files.

Tooltip background color (BETA 3.4)

<t> Is there a config setting for the tooltip background color, font family, and/or transparency? I find that the green clashes with the rest of the UI. I'd like to set it to a neutral gray with san serif and less transparency. This would make it easier to read the text, too, IMO.<br/>
