Space = Toggle between standing and prone
positions
While under RTS control:
Right mouse button = Deselect all units
End = Toggle direct control
Left Ctrl = Modify direct control (press and
hold)
x = Examine
f = Melee attack
s = Stop
E = Eject unit from vehicle
u = Use item (e.g. landmines)
Num Pad / = Quick drop item in hands
d = Drop item
Left Ctrl + 1,2...9 = Assign selected unit to group
1,2...9 = Select previously assigned group
+ = Load/Reload weapon

VI. Features
--------------------------------------------
Repairing vehicles:
Find a vehicle containing a repair kit (press 'x' Or the Examine button, then
click on a vehicle to examine it)
Drag the repair kit from the vehicle inventory to your units' hand. (Repair
kits cannot be carried in your backpack)

see an icon (2 cogs).
Left click.
Refuelling vehicles:
Find a vehicle containing a fuel can (press 'x'or the Examine button, then
click on a vehicle to examine it)
Drag the fuel can from the vehicle inventory to your units' hand. (Fuel cans
cannot be carried in your backpack)

If the vehicle has fuel in it, the cursor will change to the siphon icon (2
drops)
Left click to fill the can.
Place the cursor over the vehicle you wish to refuel. The cursor will change
into a funnel.
Left click.
Rearming Gun placements/vehicles:
Examining a vehicle or gun placement (press 'x' or the Examine button, then
click on a vehicle to examine it) will open up its Inventory.
You can move items to and from this inventory to your own stash of items and
vice versa.
In the same manner, if you acquire the correct ammunition for the gun
placement
or vehicle, you can re-arm it by placing the ammunition in its inventory.
There are two different types of shell: High Explosive (red) and Armour
Piercing (blue). High Explosive shells are most effective against infantry and
soft skinned vehicles. Armour piercing Shells are best used against tanks.
Note - different guns and vehicles require different sized shells.
Acquiring better guns:
By examining a tank or other vehicle (press 'x' or the Examine button, then
click on a vehicle to examine it) you can remove any machine guns and use them
yourself. You will usually find the required ammo in the inventory for the
vehicle as well.
