Right Click Hold on Toolbar - Pan Camera
Posted: Sat Mar 26, 2016 11:49 pm
Since SOWGB rotates the camera (pans around) using right click hold, switching between the two games can be a headache. Since I alternate between both games regularly I've finally adjusted to the alternate method of panning around - right click hold on the toolbar rather than using the scroll wheel.
Some FYI's using this method:
- If you goof and accidentally right click hold on the map, you can fix it immediately by keeping the mouse hold down and sliding the cursor to the toolbar. This cancels the right click destination move.
- Right click pan is more reliable than the scroll wheel, it responds better and always works.
- If you use a stock or inexpensive Microsoft mouse, panning with the scroll wheel will reduce it's life expectancy to a month or less.
- Right click panning is more intuitive, and comfortable, at least for me.
