Good starting guide out there, and other questions from an ex CA player

Hi,

I played a lot of Complete Annihilation and as I understand it PA is an heir to the TA3D family... except for the planets systems dimension of course.

So when I first tried the game yesterday I was both at home and in a new world.

What I would very much like is to be directed to a wiki or a guide that shows the main concepts, the tech trees and most of all the controls used (particularly in the orbital views). I only found two wikies, which were very incomplete (just a keymapping stated as outdated)

Also, is the replay system which allowed you to analyse builds, strategies of any player post game was inherited from CA ?

Finally, it seemed a bit strange to me not to have a map : I like to micro manage while having an eye on the general developments.

Thanks a lot and see you ingame

Alex

Pamatches.com is pretty much a one stop shop for all you need. Has tutorials, build guides and apparently the best wiki for PA. I believe he (brain purkiss) has just begun with a mod tutorial.

You can check the orbital commands in the keyboard panel in settings. I believe a mini-map on some form or another is coming, may not be the conventional model but has been mentioned before

Thanks for your answer, it looks very promising.
