Hello,

I've been playing BG2 for 6 years (off and on), and just installed Improved Anvil -- wow! Great mod! The Copper Cornet quest was much harder and it sure is fun finding new treasures; excellent work on the kits (Auramaster and Riskbreaker) as well. biggrin.gif

However, now I have kids, so my gaming time is quite limited. I tend to use Cntl+J to jump around in a map (Entrance of docks to Cromwell, Entrance of WP to Adventure Mart) and I'm wondering what kind of problems that will cause. Your readme talked about the other hotkey shortcuts (which I don't use), but I wondered if you can tell me exactly what kind of issues I'll be looking at.

Cntl+J typically cuts a good couple hours out of every run through the game, so I am loathe to leave it behind.... wink.gif

Ctrl-j has been known to cause issues where some game triggers get jumped over.

The usual rule with this is just to make sure you don't jump past locked doors etc just to make sure you don't miss a trigger.

A trigger is like an invisible trap that when you walk over it or come near it would set a particular game event/encounter to occur. The same kind of thing happens with the Boots of Speed sometimes.

Personally I wouldn't worry over it too much but its nice to be aware of these things as you play in case something happens that shouldn't or doesn't happen that should.
