« on: March 18, 2015, 06:07:59 am »
hello! im new to xcom, i was wondering if there was a faster way to assign a  large group of engineers/scientist in one project.. like for example i want to assign 50 engineers in one project but don't want to be bothered clicking 50 times, is there some other way like typing the numbers? thanks for the reply!

you dont have to click each time. just hold button.
you also can instantly max value by clicking right mouse button.

You can also set up the mouse button to increase values by a given amount, I think.

Use the "Change values with mouse wheel" option.

Quick sum-up:

1. By default in OXC you can max/min an amount with the Right Mouse Button (This can be modified under Options>Advanced)

2. By default you can increase/decrease an amount with the mouse-wheel in increments of 10 (Again Options>Advanced to change how many)
