possible to give order while pausing the game

Post by morphin »

Hi
Is it now possible to give orders and clicking around while the game is paused?
if not,this is for me a major game stopper.

Thank's

You cannot (at least in every other version of Harpoon) give orders during pause.

real time speed is practically paused anyway.

In Harpoon 3/ANW you can give certain orders while the game is paused, you cannot give orders when Harpoon Commander's Edition is paused.  Can you elaborate on why this is a game stopper for you?  Thank you

I not only want to give orders,I also want to click and look at the units while the game is paused. I do this very often at the beginning of the game to plan and look around.

Can't remember for sure but when you pull up the platform database doesn't the game pause?

Yes, you are correct. You can also pull up the Order of Battle to show all of your units (including planes landed at air bases), where they are on the map, and the related platform database entries.
