Ok, now it gets wierder still. I just discovered that the inability to pan seems to be tied to the saved-game. When I load the saved game from when I was having trouble panning, I can't pan, but when I load up a saved game from a different start, I can pan normally. Starting up a new game I can pan normally as well, then I reload the problem save, and I can't pan again. Really weird.
Just out of morbid curiosity, is there any place in this genre for people who don't micro the daylights out of everything?
I'm using a single monitor, but my 3D card does have dual monitor support.
So I fired up SoSE today, started up a random game, and apparently, I can't pan in two direction. Arrow keys didn't work, moving the pointer to edge of the screen didn't work, and holding down the middle mouse button didn't work. I reset the keyboard controls, but that didn't so anything. I restarted the game, and I still can't pan in two directions, but it's a different pair this time; first it was down/left, now it's down/right that don't work. I'm using Windows XP
Is there any way to increase the rate at which you research tech? Adding labs only seems to unlock the tech tree, rather than modifying the rate at which thing research. Basically, I've been playing huge map games, with a slowed tech tree, for longevity, but after a relatively slow start, I seem to be ending up with more resources than I'm able to spend productively. It would be rather nice if I could sink some of it into research. Harry Voyager
