Restaurant Empire Shortcut Keys

RESTAURANT EMPIRE
Chapter 2 – Interface Basics:
CITY VIEW SCREEN
This is the city view screen. Here you can view
the city and get a feel for the surroundings.
You will mainly travel to and from restaurants
and other locations in this view, such as the
cooking contest stadium.
To move around the city, move the mouse to
the screen edges or by using the arrow keys
on your keyboard. You can also look at the city
from different angles and perspectives. Holding
down the right mouse button while moving your mouse left or right will
rotate the view. If you want to change the viewing perspective or camera angle,
simply move your mouse up or down while holding down the right mouse
button.
To zoom in or out of the city, hold the right mouse button and press the Shift
key. Then move the mouse away from you or towards you to view the city up
close or from a distance. If you have a newer mouse with a scroll-wheel, you can
also spin the wheel forward or back to zoom in and out.
RESTAURANT INTERIOR VIEW
This is a view of a typical restaurant interior.
Here you will conduct the majority of your
everyday restaurant operations. You will manage
your staff, prepare meals and cater to the
needs of your clientele in this mode.
The controls for viewing and moving around
while in the Restaurant Interior View are the
same as those for the City View Screen.
TIP:
If you are ever doubtful about a button’s function, simply mouse-over the button, or an
interface element. A brief pop-up describing the button or interface function will
appear. Extended help will be displayed if you mouse-over the button a bit longer. You
can always turn on or off this dynamic help function by left-clicking on Game Options
> Game Options > Context-Sensitive Help.
