List of hotkeys implemented for OpenApoc version 0.0.49
OpenApoc includes an extensive '''debug and cheat system''' not present in the original game. Debug hotkeys are toggled with '''F1''' in both the Cityscape and Battlescape. When enabled, various diagnostic and cheat functions become available.
https://github.com/OpenApoc/OpenApoc/blob/master/README_HOTKEYS.txt


Note:
'''Note:''' The "Show debug commands on screen" option in the More Options menu controls whether debug command buttons are visible in the UI.
OpenApoc eventually aims to implement all the controls from the original, as well as improve interface usability by introducing new hotkeys that make sense (things like mouse scroll for lists etc.). So, eventually you can expect all hotkeys from original manual to work, in addition to new ones. For now, however, refer to this file to find out what hotkeys do what, as well as to learn about debug keys (cheats).


== General UI Hotkeys: ==
== General Debug ==
  - [Mousewheel] Scroll Lists
  - [Esc] Go back, close form, "Cancel" option
    For example, "OK" button in screens, "Cancel" or "No" option in dialogues
  - [Enter] Go forward, "Confirm" option, first option
    For example, "OK" option in screens, "Confirm" or "Yes" option in dialogues, real time in breifing
  - [Space] Skip, second (non-cancel) option
    For example, "No" in "Yes/No/Cancel" dialogue, equip button in squad assignment, checkbox to pause when event happens again, turn based in briefing
 
== General Hotkeys: ==
  - [Middle Click] Move camera to location
  - [Arrows] Move camera around
  - [TAB] Toggle map
  - [Space] Pause/Resume time (including TB)
  - [Escape] Options menu
  - [C] Toggle Follow Mode
  - [M] Show Log
  - [Home] Zoom to last event


==Cityscape Vanilla Controls Note==
Press '''F1''' to toggle debug mode on/off. When debug mode is active, some normal hotkeys are overridden by debug functions.
* Vanilla city controls were not very consistent and quite limited. For starters, right-clicking mouse in city moved map, while in battle, it didn't. There were no ways to quickly open frequently used screens (namely equipment, location, base screens) without clicking their buttons, and when using Alt/Shift hotkeys, they acted as if you clicked a corresponding button, meaning that if you missed your selection mode changed.
* Instead, OpenApoc introduces a new, consistent control scheme, which is explained in the next two sections
* For those who prefer to still use the vanilla control scheme, there is a feature to disable in the options menu called "Improved city control scheme". When disabled, vanilla control scheme will apply:
  - Right click will move screen to cursor
  - Alt+LMB will order vehicle attack
  - Shift+LMB will order moving to building
  - Left-clicking on building will always open building screen
  - No mouse controls introduced by OpenApoc will function


==Cityscape Mouse:==
== Cityscape Debug ==
* [Ctrl]
    - when giving move orders to Agents, forces Agents to move on foot (never call a taxi), and allows use of personal teleporter
    - when giving move orders to Vehicles, allows manual use of teleporter
    - when giving attack orders forces Vehicles to attack their target (instead of recovering UFOs or escorting owned vehicles)
    - note that in vanilla, attacking owned vehicles was impossible, as such, a feature toggle is required for it to work (on by default)
* [Alt] Opens ufopaedia
* [Alt/Shift] + [Click] orders vehicles directly, Alt+Shift targets buildings and Shift targets vehicles or locations, while left click is aggressive and right is non-aggressive
  - [Alt] + [Left Click] Opens ufopaedia screen for the object (vehicle type, building function or even who fired the projectile!)
  - [Alt] + [Right Click] Opens ufopaedia screen for object's owner (be that vehicle or building)
  - [Alt] + [Shift] + [Left Click] Order Attack Building
  - [Alt] + [Shift] + [Right Click] Order Goto Building
  - [Shift] + [Left Click] Order Attack Vehicle
  - [Shift] + [Right Click] Order Follow Vehicle / Goto Location
  - [Left Click]
    - Issues orders
    - Base screen for building that contains a base
    - Building screen for buildings

    - Building screen for buildings

OpenApoc includes an extensive debug and cheat system not present in the original game. Debug hotkeys are toggled with F1 in both the Cityscape and Battlescape. When enabled, various diagnostic and cheat functions become available.

Note: The "Show debug commands on screen" option in the More Options menu controls whether debug command buttons are visible in the UI.

General Debug

Press F1 to toggle debug mode on/off. When debug mode is active, some normal hotkeys are overridden by debug functions.

Cityscape Debug

Key Action
Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Left Click Destroy scenery tile at cursor
Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Right Click Collapse building at cursor
A Give every vehicle weapon and ammo to current base
W Warp to alien dimension and back
R Repair all scenery in the city (instant, ignores repair rules)
Shift + R Repair scenery using game repair logic (charges building owners, checks support) without requiring construction vehicles; single repair pass
B Spawn UFO on base assault mission
U Spawn three crashed UFOs
X Crash every vehicle on map
- (Minus) Destroy all currently selected vehicles (both owned and other)
P Regenerate dimension gate portals in current city
PgUp / PgDown Display only one map layer (other layers become transparent)

Cityscape Diagnostic Overlays

F10 Highlight tubes in city
F11 Highlight roads in city

  • For hills: switch between tiles marked as "road", or also include tiles marked with hill direction

Battlescape Debug

Key Action
Middle Click Activate teleportation mode for selected unit (regardless of whether it holds a charged teleporter)
E Force end current turn in turn-based mode
R Reveal whole map and show debug lines for which unit sees which unit
S Stun unit under cursor
Ctrl + S Stun units in small area around cursor
Shift + S Stun everything except unit under cursor
Shift + Ctrl + S Stun everything except units in small area around cursor
K Remove unit under cursor from map (same modifiers as S — Ctrl for area, Shift for inverse). Units count as retreated.
P Lower morale of every unit to trigger low morale events
Shift + P Give every unit 0 psi defense and 100 psi energy/attack
H Restore stats of every unit, heal stun damage and fatal wounds
T Restore TU of every player unit
F Re-link support lines for battlescape map parts
Q Reset AI movement order for unit at selected tile (forces prone stance change)
Numpad 0 Spawn vortex mine explosion at cursor
Numpad 1-9 Spawn a high-damage shot at cursor in specified direction (5 = downward)
F6 Dump voxelmap for line of sight to tileviewvoxels.png
F7 Dump voxelmap for line of sight (fast mode, 1/4 of points)
F8 Dump voxelmap for line of fire to tileviewvoxels.png
F9 Dump voxelmap for line of fire (fast mode, 1/4 of points)

Base Screen Debug

Key Action
F10 (on Base View) Instantly finish all facility construction
F10 (on Research Screen) Set research project to require only 100 more points (effectively completes the project at next update if at least 2 scientists are assigned)

Cheat Menu

In addition to debug hotkeys, OpenApoc provides a dedicated Cheat Options screen accessible from the More Options menu:

Option Description Default
Infinite Ammo Unlimited ammunition for all X-COM agents and vehicles OFF
Damage Inflicted Multiplier Multiplier for damage dealt by X-COM (0x - 5x) 1.0x

Additional cheat buttons available:

  • Give All Research
  • Make All Organizations Friendly / Hostile
  • Make All Organizations Utopia / Chaos
  • Modify Funds
  • Go to End of Day — advance clock to 23:59:59 of current day
