Does the manual list anywhere what the hotkeys are?

Here's the only ones that I know of:
F1 to F6 - shortcuts to six buttons in the lower part o screen (Ufopedia, Base, Options, ...)
1, SPACE - set time to slowest speed
2, 3, 4, - set time to 20min, 1 hour, 1 Day

I got them from here: http://www.ufo-extraterrestrials.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1460
hopefully they'll add more in a patch.[:)]

Thanks. I see they've got a UI thread stickied there too.

If they fix the keyboard issues, it'll make life easier, right now, it takes too many mouse clicks to do anything for my taste.

Does print-screen take screen-shots? If not what key does? And where are screen-shots stored?

The print screen button on your keyboard is a windows button. If you press the current view on your screen can be pasted into a image software (Paint, Photoshop etc.) So if you want to take a screen shot, hit print screen button somewhere above the delete button and open Pain and hot control v.

You can also get a utility like HyperGrab for multiple in-game screen shots.

 I must have taken too many alien mindcontrol hits! I am having a problem locating the file where windows default stores the screenshot images.

Do an *.clp file and folders search, that should help ya.
