rotating view

[krabbypatty]

Couple of issues..

1) I cannot rotate the view by using the right mouse button.

2. Mouse wheel does not zoom. Q&E keys do not zoom in or out either. They move up and down.

Anyone else having the same issues?

1) there isn't option to rotate camera by right mouse click there is option to rotate buildings by it, or deselect characters. There is W A S D to move camera

2.What do you mean by up and down ? up and down in Y-axis ? It should move camera forward and backward

WASD should move the camera around.
Right mouse button/ middle mouse button should rotate the camera and tilt etc
Scroll wheel should be the zoom.

Isnt this standard? not sure why you done the weird control setup you have for this game, it really is not gameplay friendly.

yeah, you can tilt left right up and down, by moving the mouse to the edges, but its too slow. Using the middle or right mouse to tilt the view from one point, is pretty much the standard for all 3D RTS games.

Scroll wheel is zooming camera now.
We played our game a lot and it was very intuitive controls for us and for our testers. This is why we start Early Access to listen to players like you, and improve the game :) thanks for your useful remark.

We will for sure improve it very soon. Also We are considering to implement Control menu in which you will be able to set keys to move camera. It will be the best solution I think, also there will be some system of click an push mouse to move camera position.

The control menu to set the keys will be a big help. I don't like the layout you picked, but I was able to find all of they keys to do everything I wanted to do; it'll feel more natural when I can set them where I want.

Rotating the camera with the mouse is big but I'm slowly getting used to moving the mouse to the left and right sides of the screen for that. I'm more used to doing this with a mouse button (maybe clicking the mouse wheel/3rd?) but it still works going to the edges.

We've made some slight changes of Camera controls. Now Q,E is rotating view, and R,T is for zooming. Keep in mind that that we are still working to improve Camera controls, this is only change of keys setting.
It is only small hotfix, http://steamcommunity.com/games/themimsbeginning/announcements/detail/199616773018147168
