Hi all,
Grrr another cat problem :-(
One of them has stood on my keyboard and now the bottom right panel lists all ships in radar range instead of detailing the one I am targeting.
Please can you tell me how to undo their "help" ??
Many thanks,
FD

Firedragon,

Key 'g'.

And your cat was just wanting to make sure you were still loyal to it!

Don't you know that cats are royalty and we are their servants to obey their every whim?

:P:P:P:P I know - I had a cat named Princess for a good reason.

LOL....You can also print out the Keyboard map form your games folder. File "Keyboard.jpg". It is handy to have around for situations like this!....

my cat refuses to let me play unless he's in my lap watching.
maybee you can find him a comfortable spot away from keyboard.

ho ho ho, i do have cat problem sometimes so now i always lock my session while living the computer

i was looking for.. dunno, a key combination for lock/unlock the keyboard ? is it possible to make this ?

a key combination to *unlock* the keyboard might be tricky - you would have to make an exception to the lock and therefore disabling the keyboard outright wouldn't be a valid locking option. Because of this, a third-party locking tool wouldn't be a viable option

If it's a laptop computer, close the top halfway. If it's a desktop, unplug the keyboard from the USB. If it's not a USB, get one. If you can't afford a new keyboard, sell the cat.

my mom is driving 2 states away to get a new cat.. her cat just died and she wants the *perfect* next cat.

so what I'm implying is, sell the cat

My cat learned not to walk on my keyboard the same day he learned the word No and 8 years later he still treats anything with keys like lava.

LOL

Cat in gunner seat, THAT I gotta see!

I once had a cat who thought she was a princess! She would sit in the kitchen floor meowing like a squeaky toy for her food, every day! Mouth wide with emphasis and everything!

She used to try to stare me down, attack me, and prove she was awesome. Against me, she learned humility!

We had another cat with her for a while, and older, larger, nicer one. Once he sat in my room watching me work on a Knex model, and she came in, beat him in the face, made him leave, then sat where he sat with a smug look on her face...

I threw her out my door! XD

Hmmm putting a cat in pilot seat or the gunner seat would be a dangerous experiment. If a new cat breed more intelligent the already existing one comes in, it would be the extinct of the human Earthlings. Kilrathi, anyone ?
