Online Multiplayer Keypad Arrows Can't be Disabled

[Warrior Poet]

I use my keypad for movement in W.M.D., and in single player this works fine. But for some reason in online multiplayer the arrows on the keypad also move the camera, which makes it very difficult and frustrating to use them for movement. I've been reassigning key bindings to the keypad since the inception of computer games, and very much prefer it over WASD or typical default binding layouts, or using the arrow keys, because it's very natural for me (plus, I have a keypad that's separate from my keyboard that I keep on the left side, which works very well for shooters). Again, it works fine in any single player game, challenges, etc. It's only when playing over the internet that the game seems to force a behind the scenes binding of the 8, 6, 4, and 2 on the keypad to camera movements. Is there a solution to this very annoying issue? I don’t want to have to bind different keys for movement purposes.

Hi Warrior Poet,

Thanks for getting in touch with us.

You can change the keybindings for the camera in the settings by double-clicking them and pressing the key you wish to change the keybind to.

We'll be sure to pass your feedback on the binding system to the team for consideration.

Thank you for your support.

Thanks for the reply! Yes, they can, but the keypad arrow keys 8, 6, 4, and 2 don't seem to care what the bindings are set to when playing online multiplayer. They move the camera regardless. This doesn't happen when playing single player. Thanks for passing this along! I'm hoping an update can be pushed to fix that, so that it only uses whatever the key bindings are set to and doesn't force camera movement that isn't bound to a key.
