Default Help with Shortcuts

Howdy,

I have a sub in game but he doesn't know (I don't either) how to turn groups of mages off.

What happens is, he selects one mage and all those with similar scripts or something get highlighted as well.

Any help would be appreciated.

press "a" and then "a" again that select all the mages in current province selected and then deselects them (this will ruin all the other groups that he might have created). The other option is Ctrl + right click on the mage he wants to deselect.

Lol, even I didn't know this one. I knew "a" selected them all, as I've used it hundreds of times, but I didn't realise it also de-grouped them all if pressed again (as I thought it only deselected them, rather than deselecting them AND de-grouping them)

Man, that is really going to save me some time in the future. But sadly it won't make up for all the time I've lost in the past by deselecting each commander separately with the ctrl key (btw it's ctrl+left click, not crtl+right click)

There's also the use of Shift-Clicking to grab groups of commanders, which is pretty useful. Shift-Click, Control-Click exceptions is how I move large groups of commanders, and it works quite well.
