RA2 now allows you to play "Free for All" in Skirmish mode. Now the AI can attack each other and not just the player. 2. Hotkeys and Interface changes added: · Right clicking on the mouse centers on the Radar Screen instead of deselecting the player's units. · Press the "Spacebar" to cycle through last 8 EVA events.

Pressing again places that building. · Press "Ctrl" + "Arrow" keys to jump to the edges of the map. · Page User is bound to "U". · Health Navigation, Veterancy Navigation, and Previous Unit hotkeys are now unbound. They can be rebound in the Keyboard Configuration menu. 3. Observer Mode: RA2 now has an Observer Mode that allows 1 player to watch other player's games. Particularly useful for Korean television shows and tournaments. · There is a new checkbox at the top of the bunkers that players can check to observe games. Clicking it will switch the "Join" button to "Observe" and vice versa. · In the game setup screen, the host can select the bottom slot to be open for observers (assuming he isn't the observer himself). Players attempting to observe go into this slot. · The observer can only chat to all players. · The observer cannot use Beacons or Waypoint Mode. · The observer is not shown on the score screen. · The observer is not allowed in Co-Op mode. 4.
