Newbie Two Basic Questions

[mart24]

Exactly where on the game interface or the computer keyboard are the game speed controls, and can I pause the game completely? So far I cannot pause or control speed.

"+", "-", & "*" on the number pad! "+" increases the speed from 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 and the "-" decreases it in reverse! "*" increases it from 1 to 10 and pressing again toggles it back to 1!

Pause/Break key pauses the game completely.

You can also push enter, that pauses the game.

Thank you both very much. My inability to slow things down or pause was driving this Newbie crazy!! :hello:

you can have game speeds of 5, 2.5 and 1.25 by pressing * and then - :smile:

Thanks for that info Doux! I did not know that! :go:
