Rebinding Interact Button (G)

[Cyler]

Hi,

quick question:
As far as I know you are unable to change the binding for the interact button (which is fixed to 'G' ), is that right?
Would it be possible to give us the option to choose which button we want?
I mean there are ways for us to use other buttons to simulate a 'G' press but thats quite annoying.

Greetings Cyler

I doubt they will implement anything like this in the game

As we can do this with our Keyboard/Mouse software by changing one of the extra buttons to be G and then pressing that instead

Within the game left click, right click, G, and H are locked and cannot be bound to different keys unfortunately, but most everything else can be changed.

Could you give us an explanation as to why that is? Seems like a trivial matter and most of us dont understand why a key cannot be bound to whatever we want in 2021, This isnt a game breaking issue but it would be nice to know.

As a programmer i most likely think they have hardcoded those buttons to all interactables and are not grabbing the keys from the key config.
Which means if they would want to change it so you can configure it they would need to change it on every single object.

If it is not this way the changing would be a trivial matter.

This. Please fix.

That is very well known you cannot bind G or F key in this game. Its not gonna change, its been like that the whole 5 years life of this game.

Could someone add a clickable NEXT button near the G? I want to click it from mouse not pressing a key...

If you have a keyboard or Mouse with software that allows macros.

Make a Macro for G and bind it to whatever key you want,

Agreed as a fellow lefty, this has proven beyond annoying so far on the occasions when you can't left click on something, I normally have this function set to a key near the numpad so stretching over to g is along way!

Wrong, we cant rebind "Interact 2" on gamepad aswell.

I play using numpad as you do, today I'll try to use controller instead of keyboard just in case they never fix it.

This made me laugh and groan at the same time! :D Gawds I hope this isn't the case, if so someone had absolutely no clue what they were doing. Interfaces, events, messaging, there are many ways to build an interactable system like this, but if they did this... I would be hard pressed to think of a worse way to do it. :P

I just started to play lost ark. Its so annoying i want to change "G" button is there any chance to change that button without using macro?
