fixed in svn.

The keypad now moves the map when a stack isn't selected.

oops, it's the shfit key that enables the dragging of the map when a stack is selected.

thanks!

Oops, sorry about that. I was looking at the 1.5 manual, the 1.6 manual does speak of it.

On mine the keypad moves the units (that's good!), arrow keys do nothing and ctrl does move planning?

The manual doesn't say anything about how to use ctrl, shift etc in combination with click btw.

Hold down the CTRL button to drag the map when you have a stack selected.

Maybe the keypad should move the map when a stack is not selected. They currently move the selected stack.

While you have a unit selected you can't drag the map; you can only use the minimap. I definitely used this more in the original game due to the inferior map grabbing and smaller general display area, but like I said, it could still be useful while you have selected a unit. I imagine that it could especially be useful on smaller devices (i.e. more like the original game's resolution) like those eeePCs or whatever they're called.

There were also keys that could be used to move the selected group around easily (in addition to the clickable buttons), but I'm afraid that I forgot what they were and I can't seem to figure out what they were.
