StarLancer
Hints:
------
When dodging an attacker, use the side-strafe controls as
you're turning; this slipping motion will make you harder
to hit.
Stick close to asteroids when missiles are being launched at
you; a missile that misses its first pass will hit the asteroid
and detonate rather than circling around to reacquire you.
Keep an eye on the energy level for your guns; some ships don't
have the energy to support full guns for very long, so either
take some of the guns offline or increase energy to your guns.
Skip to Any Level, fly Any Ship:
--------------------------------
On the StarLancer startup screen, press and hold down the
CTRL key as you type "potato".
When the red mission indicator appears in the upper left
corner of the screen ("M1" indicates that Mission 1 is
selected), type the number for the mission that you want
to play. The mission indicator is updated automatically
when you type a new mission number.
NOTE: There are 24 missions in StarLancer. To select Missions
1 through 9, type the mission number with a leading zero.
For example, to select Mission 7, type 07.
After you select the mission that you want to play, select
the ship that you want to fly during the mission. To do this,
use one of the following methods:
To select only ships that are normally available for the
mission that you selected, press CRTL+ENTER to move directly
to the Briefing Room, and then select your ship.
To select any ship in the game, press and hold down the SHIFT
key as you press the appropriate function key for the ship that
you want to fly during the mission.
NOTE: The mission begins after you select your ship.
The following table lists the function keys for each of the
ships in the game.
