Hello,
I can not search these or the official forums, so finding this information is not very easy to find.

Does anyone know (have links to) where I can find a detailed list of keyboard commands (crouch,chat log?...), command line modifiers (/tps...), and in-game commands (are there any?)? The manual is inadequate, and most lists I have seen are not helping.

well keyboard commands, look in options->controls. voila :p

no in-game commands, except a list like /tfps for servers and such, i dont know where it is but if you follow the lucasarts forum link on the news about the gamespy skip you'll get there

Thanks a lot. My main concern is a chat log. Is there a way to see what was said? If you're distracted by an at-st and miss a chat, is it gone forever?
