How about some right clicking?

VR designs has been reinforced with designer Cameron Harris and the result is a revolutionary new operational war game 'Barbarossa' that plays like none other. It blends an advanced counter pushing engine with deep narrative, people management and in-depth semi-randomized decision systems.

How about some right clicking?

Post by ryan1488 »

Seriously though, my space bar, A and M keys are already due for a refit and I don't have the points available.

Depending on the nature of how the game was implemented you might be able to map other keystroke or maybe even right mouse click to generate "space" using program "macro express" for which their used to be a demo. I did this with Campaign Series" for example. It might behave better if program has a windowed mode. Good luck

what i do not understand is that the right mouse button does absolutely nothing!

the ui interface definitely needs a tune up. the attack, selecting of units and movement could all be solved with an implementation of the right click.

one of the few problems i have with this absolute gem of a game.

until then..... carpal tunnel +4

Hi rs99z28,

Right click functionality is MIA. Sniper.

Not much we can do about that now but I'd recommend using the hot keys.

'M' & 'G' to move.

'A' to attack

Spacebar for 'Yes', 'ESC' for no.

'0' to toggle the units off, '1' or '2' to return them.

If you press '4' by mistake, press it again (hides a lot of information).

Cheers,
Cameron

Any chance of a hotkey for Report? Maybe "R" ?

Hi AstroCat.

Not a bad idea.

It's an engine modification so that's Vic's domain. I'll mention it to him but it's his call.

Cheers,
Cameron
