Toggle between ships ????

April 12, 2006 4:49 PM from

I read in the manual that the (TAB Key) will toggle the next ship available.
I started a game and I have a colony ship and a flag ship going on different directions when I press tab on the beginning of the new turn it doesn’t select any of the ships.
I’m running the updated version.
Any help on how to circle between ships without having to go search for them in the mini-map ??????????

When you say 'going in different directions', are they already heading to a destination?

Tab only selects ships without move orders.

To find all your ships, use the planet/ship list.

TAB only selects ships that have moves left and are not on autopilot. Maybe you were at the end of your turn?

You could also click on the "Find" button (bottom-left of minimap) which will do the same thing.

You can also select ships via the Ship list. Click on the first button below the context area. (Looks like a planet with a ring) Then click the ship button at the top of the window that pops up. Then click on the ship icon for the ship in the list you want to select.

My ships had set destinations that' s probably why the TAB key wasnt working.
