In the lower right of the screen you have a tool if you (named settings) if you open that one you can press on the keys (or somthing like that) and open the crane keys, there you can set the key you want to operate the crane.

Hi I've asigned the right keys in the settings window but the up and down doesn't work. If I grap a container and pull it over the water it immediately drops down together with the hook....
Can anybody help?

Hi Tobias.Nink

May I ask what version of the game you are currently running? (You can see your version in the lower lefthand corner of the main game menu)

I have seen people with crane problems before who had earlier versions and patching the game to the latest version fixed it for some of them, so maybe you need to upgrade?!

If you run a version lower than 1.4.2, you might want to download and install the 1.4.2. patch.
Depending on the version that you now have, you can - if needed - get the appropriate file here:
