Keys remapping ?

[Artemis Chanchan]

Will you add an options to remap the keys ? I'm not used to wasd and I would like to use my mouse thumb buttons to dodge and reload.
Thank you.

I will check it with our tech.
Thank you.

Sorry for the delay! Unfortunately it's not possible.

Should have read this topic before buying..
So you are saying it's not possible to add a little update in order to change key configuration?

Thank God for keyboard layout on Windows.

Is it not possible, really, to do an update of the game to use, for example, the arrow keys? I can not believe it :-(

Why not? Is it really hard to change a statement from

if (key=="w")

to

if (key==upkey)

If your coders can't do this then I'd seriously question their coding ability.

There are games I played in the 80s which allowed fully redefinable keyboards. This is 2015, for a game to not have redefinable keyboard support is just silly. I shouldn't have to build up a macro file just to frig around simple things that ought to be in a game by default.

ETA:
I decompiled the .NET code for the game and had a look. iI's because the programmer was lazy and hardcoded the keys in the code:

if (this.keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.W) && this.keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.S))

To convert this to a generic would take longer to recompile the code than it would to alter the actual code, so read "too lazy" for "not possible".

As a frig, the following autohotkey file will remap the keys to make the game actually playable (set up for my preference, alter the key name before the :: to tune it for you). Place the below into an .ahk file and make sure you've got autohotkey installed and run it before you start the game (or alt-tab out). On Windows 10 you'll need to run it as administrator.

Of course this shouldn't be needed as the game should have a key redefinition item on the pause menu in game.

up::w
down::s
left::a
right::d
enter::e
Numpad0::q
