help: ship selection filters

[intently]

I'm trying to use the ship selection filters, but I must be doing it wrong.  For example, the instructions say to push "N + 7" to select ships with damaged engines.  Here's what I'm doing:

1. Push "1" to select control group 1.
2. Push N and 7 at the same time to select damaged engine ships
3. Nothing changes, all the ships in control group 1 are still selected

Someone must have a damaged engine though, because my group speed is given as 15 even though every ship in the group has a min speed of 18

Yea took me a secound to figure this one out myself. But heres how you do it. Hold N+7 then left click and hold a spot on the map. and while holding the left click down drag the mouse over the area of ships you want to check for damaged engines. release mouse button. and you should now have them selected. you can now release N+7

Woohoo, will try.

Group move ignores ships with damaged engines btw, so this can't be your problem.
