My screen does not scroll when i move around the map with a worm. This is pretty annoying, since i have to move the screen with the mouse during my move, otherwise i wont see my worm anymore. I couldnt find a hotkey to fix this, i'd like to keep my worm 100% centered, is that possible?

The Scroll Lock and Home keys should do the trick. If they don't, come back here and explain what exactly it is that you're after. :)

if i press home, the worm in action is centered for a moment, but when i release the key, it doesnt follow the worm.

sometimes when other people are playing and i am watching, then it follows their worms.

but when its my turn, i always have to adjust with the mouse (the screen just doesnt follow my worm). no matter if scroll lock is off or on.

It sounds like either Scroll Lock is on (are you confusing it with Num Lock or Caps Lock?) or your left mouse button is held down?

This has happened to me too, but it didn't persist. It's some kind of temporary lock.

Disabled since the first day I installed the OS.

Accidental actuation of one of the newer scroll lock features?

Holding Shift while activating the camera Scroll Lock function will cause it not to be deactivated at the beginning of your next turn.

Yes, but they're all disabled when you turn off Scroll Lock.

heh i thought i switch to a higher resolution so that i see my worm longer. so i switched from 800x600 to 1280x1024 and... the problem was gone, the screen is scrolling.

perhaps the resolution is not considered when the game calculates if scrolling is necessary. that would explain the problem.

Sounds like you picked a resolution that went off the side of your monitor. There's nothing the game can do about that. Often the best option in the game is to pick the same resolution as what your desktop is set to.
