I don't have a middle mouse button

[gravey]

or i'm doing it wrong, but i'm trying to build my own map and to lay something new down that's not on the map it says use the middle mouse button, and i don't have one... i have a scroll wheel, but it doesn't do anything. I've tried finding a way to key bind, nothing. Since when is a middle mouse button ever made this important? Anyone happen to know a work around? Hot key, anything? thanks i advance.

You could use AutoHotKey. My MMB broke on my last mouse and I just rebound it with AHK.

not sure what you mean by that, mind giving a lil more info on how to do that?

https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/misc/Remap.htm

Download & Install AHK: https://www.autohotkey.com/
Right click Desktop > New > AutoHotkey Script > Name it > Right click it > Open with notepad > Insert this line at the bottom -
F1::MButton
Replace F1 with the key of your choosing:
Save > Double click the script on Desktop.
The running script will appear under hidden icons on your taskbar. If/when you want to stop it you can kill it from there.

Ok, so i downloaded it. Installed, and man do they give you a ton of information lol. So i glossed through most of it to find what i needed. I wanted a key i don't use, and settled on the left alt key which is LAlt as far as the program is concerned. And i wanted it to act like the middle mouse button, which is MButton as far as the program is concerned. :: is used in between to make one button do something else. so the final script read, LAlt::MButton

(To create the the file, right click on your desktop and choose New, then AutoHotKey Script.
A new file will pop up on your desktop, right click it and open it in notepad.)

Once the file is opened in notepad, delete all of the scripts that's written there, copy and past the script from above, save it, then run the script by right clicking the file and hitting run script. Loaded into the game and now whenever i need the middle mouse button i just hold down the left alt. Thank you bud.

i added my explanation in the hopes that the next person will be able to use this to fix theirs :)

Did you press down on the scroll wheel like you would a button?

on most mice pressing down on teh scroll wheel is the middle mouse button.

I'd suggest using a key combo instead of just LAlt.
Also check out Window Spy - right button on "H", your humankind.ahk, and add

#IfWinActive ahk_exe Humankind.exe

or whatever the map editor is named to prevent LAlt or any combo being redirected throughout your system. Maybe

!RButton::MButton

would do a better job, that's Alt+RButton. "<!" would be LAlt but that's just necessary in case you have an RAlt, too.
