Toggle sprint
It would be really nice if we could have an option allowing us to use the sprint key as a toggle (not having to press shift all the time, my pinky is hurting...)

I was thinking this apart from one problem, I'm pretty sure thirst is tied to sprinting

Yeah, of course it is, you lose more water when you run, but who cares, if you have enough production, you can easily sprint constantly without it being an issue.

Well, I don't forget to drink, but still, my pinky hurts.

Edit : and even if you forget, you'll hear that you forgot, and recieve only a 10hp damage punishment (more or less, depends on how quick you are at drinking), that you'll regen the 5 next seconds.

I've never not sprinted while playing the game. Wouldn't even know what to do with the extra drink i'd save as i'm already overflowing with food/drink.

Could try changing sprint to like middle mouse or something else that's easier to hold.

I keep meaning to set a profile on my KB to toggle the shift key for SM but I always forget, should do it now while I'm thinking about but I probably won't

Still, constantly holding a key is pretty lame, most game just have a toggle feature for sprinting, I'm just asking that the devs add this to the game options.

Could very easily create a toggle macro through AHK as well. I think logitech mice can do keyboard macros also?

Yeah definitely good idea. I'd post it over on their twitter as they look at that more.

It highlights how long this has been a request for and brings that to attention again. Hoping the devs will see people still want this.
