Timelimit

Post by Thanos »

Hi all,

we like to play Aoe II with the timelimit. Is it now possible, to implement this in AoE III ?? We also like so see the score of each player and the team (see AoE II) It would be nice, to see this in Aoe III too.......

The game itself doesn't have that feature. You're gonna have to use a calculator for that.

It's the best feature until you reach lategame when you have production facilities at multiple locations, at which point fins hotkey is useless anyway.
Pay more attention to detail.

It's a bad setting, it should not be enabled. If you really need to center your screen, just press the hotkey twice.

Space bar is better than double kick

How is it faster to press hotkey + space bar (a different hotkey) instead of pressing twice the same hotkey..?
Plus space bar should be assigned to something important, for example idle vils.

I'm talking about finding a unit with your screen centered on it. To achieve that, you need to press the "find" hotkey twice, if you have that setting disabled. That's better than pressing the find hotkey once and then pressing space bar.
And again, you want your space bar assigned to something important.

Snap to unit option is bad. Center on selected unit hotkey is good tho.

I have to agree with Kaiser on this one, no need to have two hotkeys to accomplish the same thing as double clicking the same hotkey. That setting should indeed be disabled because having it so allows you to do things like queue vils and military units in the middle of a fight without diverting the screen from said fight.

Edit: space bar should be something important like idle vils, I even use ctrl + space to find idle military if I have any.

Double pressing the same key is just awkward for the fingers tho... I agree with the space bar :); I use q for idle vills. My thumb is always on or very close to the space bar so it's fast.
last time i cryed was because i stood on Lego

"Space bar should do something important". Back when I used to use the left part the keyboard I had spacebar on snap to selected unit. Idle vill was on "\" which is great for me because I use the right hand on the keyabord. Hotkeys are subjective. Some setups are better than others but personal optimizations are possible. Anyway snap to selected is an incredibly useful hotkey when you want to go back to same group of selected unit multiple times (e.g. select all workers on a mine and shift move them to two different mines).
