Map Mode Strategy (Overview Map)

When coordination is very important, it is possible to program more compli-

cated actions on the overview map. You may switch over to the map by pressing

the SPACE BAR. The game pauses, giving you a chance to plan and program the

action without worrying about time. In this chapter, you will find out how to use

the map.

MAP 1

To be able to plan the action in detail, you

may want to zoom or rotate the map display.

Clicking on the icons with the mouse controls

the view of the map.

MAP 2

Icons

1. This icon cancels map mode and returns to the game (same as hit-

ting the SPACE bar).

2. Use this icon to rotate the map. Keep the left mouse button

depressed and move the mouse left or right.

3. This icon zooms the map in and out. Hold the left mouse button
