This is a small file with some of the things I have discovered about
S T A R G L I D E R I I
You are in control of a Starfighter of the ICARUS type. It is
controlled either by mouse, or by Joystick. I recommend mouse, as
this is far the easiest way to control the Icarus.
When moving the mouse normally about, it will control the Icarus.
The left button will fire the current weapon selection, and if the
right mousebutton is held, then moving the mouse up increases speed,
and moving down decreases speed.
The current weapon selection may be changed by pressing 'w'.
The bottom right of the screen will show what weapon is selected:
Lasers - Missiles - Bouncing Bombs - Neutron Bombs - Energy Cubes
Pressing 'i' will give you a visual analysis of what the crosshair is
pointing at. 'a' gives an audio analysis of strange sounds in the vicinity of
the Icarus.
It is possible to collect items, such as missiles, bouncing bombs,
bouncing balls, Chocolate bars usw. First activate the tractor beam
't', if you get a lock on the object, then STII will say if the object
is moveable or not. If it is moveable and you want to collect it, then
press 'c'. You can carry 3 misc. items excl. weapons.
To see what you are carrying press the Backspace key ( <- ), press 'i'
to change between items, and press 'j' to jettison (Throw out) an item.
When flying in outer space things may seem to be a bit slow, but when
you are at maximum speed, try pressing 'd' for StarDrive!!! (Just
remember to turn it off before entering another planet/moon).
When flying, it is possible to change the view, try pressing numbers
1-9 on the numeric keypad (8 is default), and ENTER (not Return)
switches you to outside view mode. Press the keypad again, and use
ENTER to re-enter the cabin.
If you didn't know, then try flying into one of those things with a
hole in them (huh?), okay, the tunnel entrances, it's a small world
after all.....
