Custom Controls

[thibaudtourneur]

Hello,

How about adding custom controls? Ideally via the GUI, but a first version through a json file would be acceptable in my point of view.

Thumbs up you'all? Thanks!

I try to set up steam controller support for java & this.
also heard their was a mod on java for controller support.
I am so very annoyed when i have to use mouse & keyboard.
I dislike the controls on stream override the mouse outside of games.

I guess that, at some point, custom controls will be developed. It's probably still in very early development and, as such, priority and popularity and interest will drive the beginning stages of the game.

At the least, helping produce a to-develop list could be done by the community so as to help the developer keep things in line for himself as well as motivate him to keep going.

Dunno.

Perhaps I should check out the discord, sometime, to see what is there haha.

So just played 4D Miner for the first time and I see what you mean with the controls. They are permanently set. However, there is software that can take game controls and make them output their input as specified input (yes, I wrote that). So if you had, what, Joystick Control or maybe what it was called; you would be able to map WASD to your controller as well as other buttons, as well.

Not exactly as easy as having custom controls in the game, itself, but it would work.

very much needed, when running through Wine on Linux, it doesn't understand alternative keyboard layouts, so I should at least be able to switch the key map.
