Controlling Thieves/Spies
(SloDragon)
Once you have some stone and lumber stored, and you "blow up" the storage yard: select a thief and click on some goods and he will start to walk to get it. Press the "alt" key and hold it . The instant the thief pulls out his sack, click a spot for him to walk to.; he will walk to that spot with the bag on his shoulder. This is a "timing" thing, so you may take several tries to get it just right. Do this with several thieves, then select all the thieves with goods and "press the ALT key again" and hold it , click on the ferry, and they will board.
