Driving from the tower

[washishu]

I like the tower; it's cosey. There doesn't appear to be a shortcut to get there. I particularly like to make an attack from the tower but after using the scope the only way to get back to the tower seems to be via the control room.

Is there some secret shortcut that would allow me to use the scope and then get straight back to the tower; it's kids' stuff really but I get a kick out of using those little buttons to open the tubes and stuff.

Also, as I'm on a Macbook, therefore a short keyboard, does anyone know a way to, so to speak, page-up/down the scope without page-up/down keys. I have a vague memory that I used to be able to do that a long time ago, but I did play on a pc for a while and I may be getting confused.

It would be real nice to be able to sit in the tower, scope up, flick the little switches and scope down without having to excuse myself through the control room every time.
