“—” means we have not confirmed that binding yet. Grenade (G) and smoke (Q) appear in some PC gameplay videos but we have not verified them ourselves.

The PC HUD lists Fire, Aim, Reload (R), Sprint (Shift), Switch (1–3) and Night vision (N).

Flying (Update 2)

  • One push takes off.
  • Use the CLIMB and DIVE buttons to change altitude.
  • Flying works on phones.
  • Watch out: since Update 2 rocket launchers can lock on to aircraft, and the Battleship carries anti-air missiles.

FAQ

How do you fly planes in Army Commander Tycoon?

Since Update 2 planes take off with one push, and you use the CLIMB and DIVE buttons to change altitude. Flying works on phones too.

How do you give orders quickly?

Hold Z on PC (D-Up on controller, hold COMMAND on mobile) for quick orders; your army answers over the radio. For full control press C to open the COMMAND map.

How do I get back to my base?

Press H to show the route back to base. It draws a path; it does not teleport you. The Jetpack and Personal Jeep passes make the trip faster.
