The following appears in the Nav tab of the Help Window
Compass
The Compass shows the player which direction he's facing: North, South, East, or West. When a player selects a landmark on the Map, that landmark also appears on his Compass (See Zone Maps for more details).
Fog of War
If a player has never entered an area, it appears on the Map in gray (in a City Zone) or black (in a Hazard Zone, Trial Zone, or Mission Map). As a player enters these areas, their details are revealed on the Map. From this point on, the areas will remain revealed.
Movement
The default movement keys are:
W: forward
S: Backward
A: Left
D: Right
To change directions, a player holds down the right mouse key and moves the mouse in the direction he wishes to travel.
A player can customize the movement keys by clicking on Menu in the Status Window and selecting Options.
Light Rail
Note: The Light Rail section appears on the Hero Help only
Heroes can move from zone to zone through the intra-city Light Rail system. Monorails connect one City Zone to another City Zone. A hero can choose to go to any station along that Light Rail line.
There are two Light Rail lines that form concentric loops around the city. The lines, and the City Zones they connect are as follows:
Yellow: Atlas Park – Steel Canyon – Galaxy City – Kings Row – Skyway City
Green: Independence Port – Brickstown – Talos Island – Steel Canyon
Ferries
Note: The Ferries section appears on the Villain Help only
villains can move from zone to zone through the ferry system. Ferries connect one City Zone to another City Zone. One ferry system allows a villain to choose which island he travels to. This ferry system connects Cap au Diable, Sharkhead, Nerva Archipelago, and St. Martial.
Thumbtacks
A Thumbtack is a temporary mark that a player can place on a City Map. In order to place a Thumbtack, the player needs to left click on a place on the open Map.
