Help, With Terrain Manipulator.
I just need to know the key I need to press to build terrain instead of remove it on PC. I tried watching YouTube vids and WOW.....a lot of console players or just people just milking the "10 minute Youtube algorythm".

I also went with the wiki.....maybe I am blind, I did not see it there either.

Middle Mouse Button

If you look in the upper right corner of your UI when the terrain manipulator is active, it tells you what the key for it is. With Mouse and keyboard control, it is, as @smurfy said, the middle mouse button.

or if you are using an xbox controller, use the 'B' button to switch between the various terrain tools... there's also flatten as well as restore...

edit: corrected which button on controller...

Thank you everyone for the replies. I tried YouTube and the Wiki and did not get the answer.

YouTube wow, YT was rough trying to get a simple answer. I never found it.

Errr... Y switches the weapon, B changes the ALT.

Can't disagree with you there. It's hard to find a decent youtube channel that doesn't play this game. And remember, it's all about the money. Some people actually don't knjow they make cash out of it which is why they do the 10 minute thing.

at start i had 2 multis since slots were too low to have all in one so change weps. now i chagnethe key that change from miming to manip to beam to blaze javelin.
This is STILL helping people. That text was tiny on my Steam Deck screen. I kept accidentally turning it on and couldn't figure out how.
