Any way to change controls for this game?

[rockbiter68]

Pretty much the title. I'm clicking on the keybinds/hitting enter on them and it's not giving me a prompt. Is the controls section just there to tell me what buttons to use, or can I change them?

You can't rebind controls? I was about to buy but that's a deal-breaker for me personally. It's just basic functionality for a modern game.

As far as I can tell. I poked around in all the menus I could find but sometime I'm a bit clueless. I haven't played the game since, though, so I can't say for sure.

Any news on this? I just started the game and cant rebing keyboard keys...

[Gubernaut]

Will they be adding this option with the next update?

[banderfetch]

I've been waiting for a year for this fix to be implemented so I went to try again today thinking it would surely have been fixed by now... only to find that I still cannot change the key bindings! I cannot even attempt to play this until I can customize the keys. Absolutely ridiculous.

WOW, 2 years later after an actual dev said they would be "patching this in shortly" - and it's still not done.... :(

Don't get me wrong, they've obviously been working on explorer mode, which is great, and i'll being playing it. But to release new content, demonstrating they're clearly still working on the game - and not include this long requested - long awaited support for key rebinding. Kinda sends the message that they just had no intention of ever doing what they promised in regards to key rebinding.

Sad it takes so long tbh. So that will be .ini fiddling or controller shizzle. Bit of a let down tbh, followed this game since day one.

Saddest part is that the initial "day one" was such along time ago, after which any publicized development went dark for quite a while. Then they eventually came back, only to find that upon release they were asked by alot of the player base to "go back to the drawing board" again lol.

So you can look it two ways, either they've been through development hell just to get to this point - or - you could argue that they have had more than enough opportunity to get the little things done by now, even if they had difficulty with the bigger things.

That said, the fact they they listened to player feedback and came back with explorer mode, is a testament to them. I know huge amount of the player base will appreciate this - I certainly do.

Dev's (December 2018): "patching this in shortly"

1 year and a pandemic later. Still unable to remap the key binds. As a lefty (remapping key binds to left side of keyboard or numb pad in all my games), this game is unplayable.

Wow, game just got a 1.4GB update last night.
Thought it might be rebinding support.. but alas not :(

It's far from ideal but maybe this will help you guys needing to rebind keys. It's free and better than nothing right? >> https://atnsoft.com/keyremapper/ <<

If playing on Steam then you can use Steam Big Picture mode. You can rebind keys there. There are a couple that are hard bound for when inside inventory or something, but works pretty good otherwise.

Some devs are just like that. Controls schemes can sometimes be part of their "artistic vision", and consistently they tend to pay little mind to key-remapping support requests. Artistic vision trumps ergonomics and accessibility in that instance I suppose. Pretty odd mindset thought if you ask me.

That's too bad you still can't change the keybindings, I don't have a mouse (shame on me I know) and I don't have my controller anymore, so that means the game is fully unplayable for me now
