Dumb question
« on: February 16, 2009, 11:55:23 am »

How do I take screenshots of the game? What I mean is, is there a way to take a screenshot of the game itself or do I have to take a shot of my entire computer screen whenever I want to make a screenshot?

Go to the main menu. You can export the image of your fort for as many levels as you want to export.

I don't know what OS you're using but will assume it's a version of windows so:

Quote
On Microsoft Windows, pressing the Print Screen key captures a screenshot of the entire desktop area, and places it in the clipboard. Pressing the combination of Alt-Print Screen captures only the current active window. However, by first pressing Alt, then the hotkey of the dropdown menu you wish to illustrate, you can capture dropdown menu contents. In most versions of Windows, screenshots captured this way do not include the mouse pointer.
