Needing some direction...

Post by Lord British »

I'm new to this and I have read the documentation here:

_http://www.computerbrains.com/ccs64.html

I'm still not having much luck, am I supposed to be able to remap the keys? Also, mainly what I'm looking for is what combination do I use to get [CTRL] in Standing Stones? I know you have to use CTRL and I to move forward through a door but I have not been able to move through a door yet. I have downloaded this several times in the past few years only to give up due to this.

I know someone here knows right off the top of their head or can point me in the right direction. I appreciate any assitance you can provide.

Looks like it might be "TAB" - Can't wait to get home to find out!

I must get to the cockroach races in Standing Stones...

Yes, the key is "Tab" because it's in the same relative position as "Ctrl" on a C64 keyboard. For the same reason, your keyboard's left "Ctrl" key will emulate the C64's "C=" key.

This can get really confusing around the - + : and = keys... it helps to have a good memory and/or a picture of a C64 keyboard handy!

There is a PDF file of the keyboard lay-out, which comes as part of the CCS64 release package. Also, the HTML documentation details some special key-mappings.
Kind regards,
