Topic Subject: A useful tip on browsing the long TRIGGER LIST easier
posted 17 November 2002 01:10 AM EDT (US)   
Howdy all,

I would like to share a useful tip on browsing the long trigger list easier. This isn't a trick or a groundbreaking discovery -- just a nice, easy way of scrolling the trigger list that could save a lot of time.
===========


When you browse through the list of Conditions or the list of Effects, you will notice that there are so many different types, and trying to look through the list from top to bottom by clicking can be a really hassle.

Tips: since the list is organized in alphabetical order, you can scroll smoothly through each alphabet by hitting that letter on your keyboard. The scrolling speed will be much smoother than trying to use the pointer.

Notes: this is especially useful for browsing through a list that was not organized alphabetically such as the Set Tech Status.

I hope that wasn't confusing =). Let me know if something didn't make sense.

-Alex

The lack of ordering on the set tech status list is really annoying...

I already do this, but sometimes you have to make sure you are actually in the trigger window, or it will just the they hotkey to open a menu.

I noticed this too. Just make sure your mouse is over the dropdown list.

that doesn't work

I press a letter and it goes down, say, a third of the list, again in it goes down a fourth, then it goes to the end

it does something like that

Techs I think are not sorted alphbetically, but how they are avaiable in the game.
