Panning using the spacebar

[songcarver]

Feature request: hold spacebar to pan around view with mouse.

I seem to remember that in the Mac version of Age of Empires, you could hold down the spacebar and pan around the view. As a designer-type, my muscle-memory makes me do this about a zillion times per game. 

Wondering if that might be something to please consider supporting?

I'm not sure what you mean. Currently you can pan by putting the mouse on the edges using the WASD keys, and the arrow keys.

So you'd like that when you press spacebar and move the mouse it'd also move the screen ?

 

Here are all the existing hotkeys.

The in-game manual and the page Stan linked might be partially outdated; the actual hotkeys are defined in the binaries/data/config/default.cfg file.

For your request, all you have to do is insert

hotkey.camera.pan = "Space"

in your local `user.cfg` file (see https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/GameDataPaths ).
