When your character is just walking around, then you are considered in passive search mode (except for elves, who are considered in active search mode all of the time, with no movement penalty). People in passive search mode move at normal speed, but get only half of their modifier to search roll.

There should be an option (right-click your character, then select the action from the "other actions" area) to enter Search Mode. In this mode, you only move half speed, but get your full search modifier. You can also right-click on a quickbar slot, and it will pull up the same menu as right-clicking on your character. Choose Search Mode, and it will set it as a button on the quickbar.

I have not seen anyone mention the advantage elves have in this area before. I think it is a huge advantage not to have to go into search mode to get full search.
