Question re Ship Movement

March 29, 2008 3:39:50 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Hi, just a quick question:

How can we make ships move vertically?

I've seen, in some screenshots & videos, ships positioned above and/or below the enemy; how is this done?  I've only been able to figure out horizontal movement.

Thanks.

There’s an option in your key bindings unset by default, if I remember correctly, that causes the cursor to move up or down while it’s held during a move command, much like Homeworld did. That said, there’s not much overt call for it since ships self-target neatly around the well, but it’s in there.

people trying to turn this game into homeworld and introduce 3d tactics.. bah.. here is an example of where it might be useful tho..
you go into a system that has a bazillion platforms, all interlaced, and with perfect coverage, you try to make it to the planet, and you'll be toast.. the answer? just go above them.. play 3 diminsionally in a 2 diminsional game
