Speeding up battles

This is one of the most-repeated requests by players new to Dom 2 ...

I agree. A speed up option would be very nice. In one very long siege vs. an enemy pretender, for example, I won and the enemy pretender died, but I missed exactly how he died. The battle was so slow I didn't feel like viewing it again, probably multiple times, to figure out what happened.

I have found that turning off the background speed up the combat considerably, at least for me. But for the life of me, I can't recall what the keyboard command is to do that... "b" or "v"? (It's late, and I'm quite sleepy, so please forgive me...)

EDIT: Just checked it, it is "w". Zzz...

It's your money, but isn't that a bit extreme? Sure, it's annoying but

Its EXTREMELY annoying. Im thinking of shelving the game until it is fixed.

70% of the battles i dont even bother to watch, which is a damn shame as it is a huge part of the enjoyment.
It also makes the learning curve higher, obviously.
