Kyshakk Koan Erika Maroonmark Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Can someone please explain how the whole 3-D direction thing works? I still can't figure out which monsters are adjacent to which of my characters half the time. >_> Sometimes it seems like I'm way far away from a monster, and I take a step toward it, only I don't, I attack it; sometimes I think I'm adjacent to one but I'm not. It confuses me horribly. ^^;; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Looking at the automap may help, or if you're looking at the automap already, looking at the main screen may be more useful. The iso-3D thing is based on a 2D engine. Do you use the mouse or the keypad to move? (Or the arrow keys?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Thralni Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I don't really understand what's so difficult. 1) I recommend to use the arrow keys, and not the mouse as in Exile. Only use the mouse if you want to make a step diagonally. 2) In a fight there are these drwan squares on the floor? look at the squares if you're always confused.

Ineffable Wingbolt Rent-an-Ihrno Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 i recommend not the arrow keys but the numeric keypad. if you still have problems, you might be not wearing your glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 You can also turn on the grid in the preferences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Erika Maroonmark Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 Grid... that might help. ^^ Thanks, guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall demonslay3r Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 The grid helps bunches. Otherwise, just keep guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Lochmacher Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 You should also (if it's Avernum 1) look at the left mouse-right mouse thread to see if that might be the problem too. (It's annoying to walk 2 steps, or one and then attack). http://www.ironycentral.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=17;t=001692 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk PantherShadow Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 If you're uring the numeric keypad (which I recommend), make sure NumLock is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
