Okay, I can not figure out the controls in Adventure mode for anything. I've searched everywhere, but can't find anything. Moving is about the only thing I've figured out.

Some help?

[Sean Mirrsen]

Escape key, then Key bindings.

Or, for more detailed description, "?" (question mark, Shift+/) to reach help, and go from there.

if you are playing on a laptop, you will want to invest in a usb-attached external numeric keypad.

but since you're already a hardcore roguelike player, you already have one of these.

you ARE a hardcore roguelike player, arent you?

[Faces of Mu]

If you ARE a laptop player (as I am) you will need to adjust the "secondscroll" to keys other than the number pad keys. I've got mine set to Home (Up) and End (Down).

I fixed it a long time ago, but (I think) unless you permanently change these in the interface.txt file, they will keep resetting every time you load up.

For adventure mode, I made the diagonals - (NW), + (NE), [ (SW), and ] (SE). Up to how you like it, of course.

I guess I'm the only one playing DF on a laptop with no keypad, using the Fn key and its associated keys?

[Faces of Mu]

Hmmm, hadn't thought of using the Fn keys. But on the other hand, doing that, to me, would seem like...adding a z level to my current layout - which is adding far too much superfluous processing.

How do you find it tho, Mephisto?

[Mephisto]

How do I find it, as in "Is it fun to play?"

It's what I learned to play in, so I'm about as good as the average player on a normal keyboard.
