...or maybe the documentation isnt obtrusive enough!

Yeah - half full/half empty - it's all in how you look at it.

But while we're on the subject of wished for and possible undocumented features, being a massive clamhorder, I'd love to have a shift-Y command to complement the blood hunters shift-Z command.

shift-Y would dump all astral gems into the lab, or possibly just all gems. I spend a ridiculous amount of time collecting astral gems out of my clams, and it sure would be nice to have the equivalent of the shift-Z command. I don't suppose it's possible that this feature already exists, and I just don't know about it?

Why dont you go to the Lab and press the "pool" button there? I always wondered why shift-Z is there at all! Does it work differently to pooling?

Yes, it only takes blood slaves off of the commanders you have selected currently. This allows you to only remove blood slaves from non-sacrificing priests when playing Mictlan.

There's no keystroke that from the main map collects astrals into the lab, AFAIK, but you can always go into the lab and pool all astrals with a click. It'll also strip astrals that you'd rather be retained for battle if the commander's in a lab, but *shrug* no interface is perfect.

Ah, that's what I needed. I haven't been in that part of the interface since demo days - I'd forgotten it existed!

Thanks!
