    Default Units zipping about too fast

    Hi,
    I was going to kick back and get into a game of MTW2 tonight but I noticed on the campaign map the units were zipping around really fast instead of the usual slow walk. I would left click on the unit, then right click and the unit would move from one point to the next in an instant.
    All the units acted this way, armies, spies, diplomats, all of them.

    Is there a key I hit by mistake or something? Anyone else ever have this problem?
    I checked all the settings I could find and everything looked in order.
    Guess I might try re-installing.

    You could just try to hit space, they should walk as normal then. Thats what I do at least!

    Hope you figure it out!

    As above, push your space bar to slow up and speed down campaign map movement.

    So do you sit and watch your troops/agents walk painfully slowly over the strat map then? I just cant stand how slow they move without pressing Space!

    Yep.
    When I play I like to take my time.
    That's why I hate button smashing games that stress me out.
    I play to relax.

    Well you don't even have to press space.

    Just click the mouse button again after you've given the unit it's order and it will speed up the animation.
