Keyboard Commands.
Hi there.
Sometimes on SMAC I happen to accidently access commands that aren't listed in the manuel, such as sending entire groups to another city, or having the option to destory a city you own. But I can rarely find them again and even when I do I have no idea what I have accidentaly pushed!
Is there a complete list of ALL the keyboard commands for this game someplace?

I have 2 blank pages with the header notes at the back of my manual ... keyboard commands come before them

Not in my manual.
But then I always suspected some pages were missing.
So how about helping me out rather than assuming I didn't look their first.

I got the Planetary Pack, and there were some Basic Commands on the back of the CD box.

But I seem to recall reading a longer list of commands somewhere. I can't for the life of me remember where, though . . .

Heya Leviticus. Welcome to Poly - hope you enjoy SMAC.

Have you tried www.alphahq.net?

Actually, don't try that. I just did and it wasn't the website I thought it was.

Hmm...

Try http://www.firaxis.com/smac/

This website used to have all sorts of in depth information, including what Aki-Zeta-5's original name used to be, and which city Zakharov was born in, and what day/month/year the Chairman was born.

I'd imagine it has some keypress info too.

Even if it doesn't it's a fun site to look at.

Okay, WOW. I check these boards at work, btw, so it would be nice if folks didn't blindly link porn on them. Thanks.

1st: WHO's that "Manuel"???

2nd:
also enabling the "full menu listing" (can't recall the name) would allow you to have all the avaialble commands listed in the menu (and in the right-click popups too).
You can then accurately parse them: all the available shortcuts should be listed there alongside the realted command items.

____
Oh, don't take it bad, assuming someone didn't read the manual is a mandatory drill, almost a sport I'd say
There is even a dedicated acronym!
RTFM

He would just woe not having the manual in the first place...

Yeah, I realised how stupid I was about a day later. Which shows that I'm not only stupid, but slow as well. Oh well

Dammit, I'm certain that there was a dedicated SMAC site at that address.

Maybe it got shifted over to the firaxis link.

And in any case I don't think it quite qualifies as pornography. She's just relaxing in her underwear. I mean, Michelangelo got away with much worse.

(Actually maybe that's the reason why you're not allowed to take photos in the Sistine Chapel... )

Not as good as the "Adult" links on your website, I'm sorry to say
