[. . . ] If Lara loses sight of the enemy, it will break her lock, but that enemy will still be assigned as the current target. The camera will track the current target, so even if Lara loses sight of it, you can still see where it is. To make Lara continue shooting the current target after she has lost her lock, simply point her in the right direction If you want to shoot a different enemy, simply let go of the Action Key, and Lara will pick a new target. While you have your guns out, Lara can no longer do anything that would involve the use of her hands. These actions are described below. Other Actions Other Actions Other Actions Other Actions Other Actions Vaulting If Lara is faced with an obstacle that she can climb over, pressing Up and the Action Key will make her vault onto it. Climbing Some walls are climbable. If Lara comes across such a surface, pressing Up and the Action Key will make her jump up (if there is room) and catch handholds on the wall. She will only hang on while Action is held down. She can then be made to climb up, down, left and right by pressing the Cursor Keys. Pressing the Jump Key will make Lara jump backwards away from the wall. When Lara arrives at the top of the ladder she may be faced with a small opening, pressing the Crawl Key will make Lara duck and pressing Up on the Cursor Keys will make Lara crawl into the gap if she will fit. Duck and Crawl As described above Lara can Duck by pressing the Crawl Key and crawl by keeping that key pressed while using the Cursor Key to move her as you wish. Lara can also pick up objects while crawling. Simply position her right in front of the object and press the Action Key. Grabbing hold If Lara is near a ledge while she is jumping, pressing and holding the Action Key will allow her to grab the ledge in front of her and hang there. If a wall is climbable, Lara can catch onto it anywhere (not just ledges). Press Left or Right, and Lara will shimmy sideways. Pressing Up will make Lara climb up to the level above. With Look held down, the Cursor Keys allow Lara to look around her. Once you let go of Look, the view returns to normal. (TIP: if you are trying to line Lara up for a jump, and the camera is in an awkward position, pressing just the Look button on its own will show you exactly what direction she is facing. ) 7 7 IN GAME MENU RINGS IN GAME MENU RINGS IN GAME MENU RINGS IN GAME MENU RINGS IN GAME MENU RINGS While in-game pressing the ESC key will display the Menu Rings.
