This would be nice.  But as far as I can tell, there is not.

I would love if they put out a well made pdf of that once the game goes gold.

I've been working on a manual (with lots of words and stuff in it) and will get this info in there

Just so we understand, and as duly noted by the Brothers Gibb, this is NOT a trivial matter ...

Relax.  There's only 4 days and a few hours until launch ... its not as though a player's manual is standard at launch or anything. :P

 

THERE ARE SO FEW DAYS!

And there was much rejoicing.

Just curious, but any chance the keyboard shortcut list could be available as a link in the Options Menu? That's where most are listed.

Also, you should post the list prior to 1.0 so JackArbiter has a chance to correct the grammar. That man's an English-correcting machine!

we are gonna try to make the manual (and its information) available in as many forms and to as many people as possible... but I don't think there is gonna be time to get a direct hot key list into the game itself. If Derek will let me I will gladly post it here, on the website, link through the games ect ect when it's done. Which could be today even :)

We also have a grammar/spelling nut (english major) here who has looked over half of it so far... So hopefully that part wont be needed

No ability to change the hotkeys to different buttons? aawww :pout:

No worries. Maybe adding the list to the Options menu would be something for the future. I know many people have requested that the keyboard shortcuts would be customizeable, which at that point would be required to be added to Options. Maybe for the 1.1 patch?

Glad to see you've got an internal proof-reader on the scene, too. I'm pretty decent in that department, but I'm always amazing to see how some good editing can make a difference in the word-smithing (see, I'm not sure if word-smithing is hyphenated or not; that's the job of a great editor).

yea not for release at least... it would be nice for the future but there are other things we would like in there first.  I made some super awesome game information screens that we would loooove to get in there when we have time too, which if you guys saw I'm sure you would agree :)  

 

we do appreciate all you guys' proofreading feedback a ton, we just have so much time to look things over and few people to do it ;)

Man power. One of the most restrictive resources in most projects.

What's going on over there, anyway? I haven't heard from Brad or Derek on the forums. Things are quiet. Too quiet...

I bet they are stressed ATM, they probably both have last-minute projects

I dunno, this actually sounds rather appealing... a comic book manual.  Hmmmm

I think it would make a good parody, but not necessarily a manual... although it would be fun to see.
