new versions and patches of the original game files there as well.



A completely new game extension was also released called [Ambermoon Advanced](https://GitHub.com/Pyrdacor/Ambermoon-Advanced). Check it out!

### Left clicks

- On map center (Zzz) it will wait for 5 minutes.

- All kinds of interactions and selections.



### Right clicks



- On portrait will open the inventory.

- In 2D map view will show a crosshair cursor which can be used for interactions. Or it aborts an already active action cursor.

- In 3D map view:

  - On the corners (turn arrows) it will perform 90° or 180° rotations.

  - On the center (Zzz) it will trigger interactions with a nearby map object.

- On item it will pickup all the items without asking for the amount.

- When dragging an item it will reset the item back to its source slot.



### Mouse wheel



- Scrolling the wheel on 2D maps changes the cursor.

- Clicking the wheel or middle mouse button on 2D maps will show the crosshair or mouth cursor.

- If a scrollbar is present, it can be controlled by the mouse wheel as well.



## Configuration



Ambermoon.net can be configured ingame but also via a configuration file.

See [Configuration](Configuration.md) for more details.



## Changelog



You can find the full changelog [here](changelog.md). You can also look at the [releases](https://github.com/Pyrdacor/Ambermoon.net/releases). They have more details in general.



## Custom music



You can use your own music with Ambermoon (e.g. the Atari music or the remixes from Matthias Steinwachs). For more details read [here](CustomMusic.md). \

I also provide the Atari tracks [here](https://ambermoon-net.pyrdacor.net/download/music_atari.zip). Just extract the mp3 to a folder called "music" next to the main executable to enjoy the music. Note that not all tracks were converted to Atari so only 13 out of 32 tracks are available.
