Mount and Blade FAQ (WIP, about Native or Floris)

Shit definitely worth knowing:
- [CTRL]+[SPACE] speeds up time on the travel map
- [BACKSPACE] opens up a troop command interface in battles (for commands like charging, falling back 20 feet, formations...)
- [CTRL]+[LEFTCLICK] on the map in the troop command interface sets waypoints for your troops
- [CTRL]+[LEFTCLICK] on items in inventories moves it into the trading partner's inventory


Ctrl + J makes your horse rear and stop instantly

~ lets you view your outfit in battle I think

If you have Infantry selected in battle, Ctrl + Shift + 3 will add Cavalry. So Infantry and Cavalry.

Hitting 5 after that inverts your selection. So selecting everything but Infantry and Cavalry.

Also, if you're the Marshall, everyone obeys you in battle, not just your own troops

- Trainer (the skill) stacks
- Spear Bracing: (Floris) [B], (Native) [F6] or [F7] (I don't remember which one)
- Couched lance: On a mount, equip a lance and gain speed, charging preferably in a straight line. Your character will lower his lance. Point the lance's tip onto an enemy so it will hit him upon impact (as if the game had an advanced physics system). Can be used both in third- or first-person view.
