N2 - undocumented hot keys

We in the UK do not appear to have got the hot key list that N2 buyers in the States had (e.g. keyboard L = spotter report on leader ). With this in mind, would someone be kind enough to post it on-line or tell us where to find it ?

I know of the 'o' key for your lap times, the 'l' for the leader (as stated above :). The 'Alt' key to view the other menu under F2 without having to hit Enter. The "#" key appears to take screen grabs for us, (the key to left of Enter) and "\" doesn't. As to the difference in manuals UK-US.... It only has 96 pages. Much improved over the initial N1 release, which had only 12!!!!! Plus 6 more for installation and t/shooting. :P The manual seems to have been re-written for Europe (which I guess is good.) We have explanations for "Loose" and "Tight/Push", does the US ver? On page 7 there is a screen-shot of the Race Options screen, it shows "Numbers of opponents" set to 41. Is that interesting?? :))) It says that Entry Lists can only have 1 player, denoted by a * , nothing about being at the top of the list either... Don't get me wrong, I think that the manual is good, and much better than my N1 manual. It has plenty of good stuff like explaining drafting, pit-stops, points system. In some ways this was unneccesary, according to the latest UK PC Gamer, crashing into other cars is much better in N2 than 1, so that's why N1 isn't on the "Top 100" games list. Oh... ok... Having said this, UK PC Gamer did quote in their N2 review: "Those nice people at Sierra will be using our CD to carry any new tracks that they may release." It's to that point, anyway... s'pose this is out the window now the BGN pack has been anounced, as a product. Jon Guildford, UK http://www.meganet.co.uk/~pegasus/nascar2/
