[Bug/Gameplay]Tab doesn't allow switching to scouts

October 7, 2009 3:21:52 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Using tab to go from one unit to the next, my scout is  always ignored.

Guards, even inside ciites, and sovereign get selected.

I also think units in cities shouldn't be selected when tabbing to go to the next unit.

TAB is sporadic at best for myself. If I have my Souv selected on the map and TAB, it will go to my 1 town at the time and then back. If I deselect that same Souv right after and then TAB again, I end up in the map corner with the fancy Compass. Then the TAB never functions properly after that.

Yea, the tabbing-to-the-corner-of-the-map is an odd one.

Edit: I've reported it before, but specifically: if you have any unit in any of your cities, the tab rotation will include the corner of the map; if you have no units in any city, the tab rotation seems normal.  Does anyone get different behavior in either case?

It's been reported that the camera also goes off-map if you've had units die as well.

As to the OP, are the scouts autoexploring? The tab function *should* only cycle through units with available moves, AFAIK.

No, the unit wasn't autoexploring.
