why cant i bind m1 to attack

[Future Flea]

m1 is the best bind to primary because its already hard enough to dash jump using keyboard. also m1 is pretty much universal for attack or shoot.

You know, 20XX doesn't currently use the mouse at all -- maybe it could, though. Anyone else want this?

thx

This isn't the only "no mouse needed" game I've played where people wanted to control with the mouse. The other game was Secrets of Grindea, and people wanted mouse support for that, and they just went in and added it.

I assume some players here will want the same kind of a desire, so why not?

I'd love to see your set up for key bindings if you end up playing this with a mouse... without camera control on a mouse that feels even clunkier to me >.>

no cammera control just click then attack

[Future Flea]

should be as easy as using a key like E to attack

Yeah, in theory, but my body doesn't feel less dirty.

I can imagine a good mouse set up, especially with a gaming mouse. Can have a button for standard attacks, all your powers, and maybe if it has been added or will be (I haven't had a chance to play newest patch yet), a way to scroll through powers.

So basically all movement is done on the keyboard with one hand, and all the offensive options is done with mouse on the other.

The only problem with mouse setups for games like this is that.. there aren't a whole lot of keys on your average mouse. The average mouse only has five inputs, and two of them are pretty awkward. (M1, M2, M3, Scroll Down, Scroll Up) Most of the controls in this game you'd want to be moving with anyway too, so they'd need to be on the mouse or thumb-controlled. The only control I'd say you WON'T be using WASD at the same time as it would be the Interact button.. you generally slow down to interact with items/portals/etc. But dashing, jumping, attacking and using Powers? To do those standing still would be suicidal in some instances.

I mean, I could somewhat see this working in 20XX's case: Attack on M1, Jump on M2, Powers on the scrollwheel (however awkward that may be), Dash on Space and Interact on E. Most games with WASD-JKL style controlschemes though (especially the previously-mentioned Secrets of Grindea!) I couldn't see mouse-controls working for those games at all ;o

If you don't mind installing a third-party tool, you can use AutoHotkey[ahkscript.org] to play the game with your mouse and see how it goes. Just use a script that binds some keyboard keys to your mouse buttons (and vice versa, so you can actually close the script somehow).

I just tried the following code and it worked fine.

LButton::d
RButton::q
n::LButton
m::RButton

You can rebind five mouse buttons and up to two (?) scroll wheels.

Slightly off topic: The scroll wheel on the mouse used to allow you to zoom in and out, but they removed that feature because you can obviously zoom all the way out and see half the stage. However, I wouldn't mind if the devs made it possible to zoom in again so we can take more detailed screenshots of the characters and enemies. Their graphics are more high-res than they seem in the game at default zoom.
