The radar has three ranges: short, medium, and long. Use <1>, <2>, <3>.
That is true, however, I can use <4> and <5> to zoom in/out in small increments. :P

Working on it...

Post by GMMan »

I'm still working on Beginner Tips #2. Writing all these things are back-breaking. Hopefully it'll be easier with Windows Live Writer. Meanwhile, keep yourself occupied with my Secrets!! #2. I'll try to get the second tip finished tomorrow if I have time.
*Ow.... back still hurts*

Man I'm occupied. I have to review Boxy War and get the tips done...
