Realms of the Haunting/Game Mechanics and Glitches

General Notes About Running the Game

• note that there are several ways to perform the same actions in this game (all covered in the manual):
  • movement: arrow keys, keypad or mouse
    • keypad also has the HOME, END, PGUP and PGDN keys for tilting the view
    • mouse can be used for moving around, but also attacking; mouse view rotation sensitivity can be adjusted in the menu (it's faster to turn using the mouse than arrow keys)
  • attacking: CTRL or mouse left while already holding mouse right. There's also a way to move your hand left and right while holding a weapon but I don't know how I did that...
  • selecting weapons: 1-6 for equipping weapons from the first 6 slots of the guns inventory tab
  • the inventory: aside from pressing I you can also left-click the top left corner to enter the inventory. While inside it, 1-5 change tabs.
  • Quicksave and Quickload: F9 and F10
  • RUN MODE toggle: manual mentions both CAPSLOCK and TILDE, for me (EU keyboard) only the key below ESCAPE works.
  • Quick reload: if you die, press SPACE to quickly load the last save

General Tricks

• While run mode is on, you move so fast you keep getting stuck on each stair. To counteract this you have to keep jumping as you ascend them.
