Is there a way to turn off "auto shovel"

[dogwalker1]

I'm referring to at the hogpan parcel, when the shovel automatically tries to dig for you at the hogpan site, after you've just dumped a shovel load into the box. As I progress on the parcel it gets annoying and delays me. I'd rather the shovel just dig only when I click. Playing on hard, so "digging helper" (if that's what this is) is already 'off' - or so it says.

Digging helper is the tutorial information that will occasionally pop up while you are around various items.

I have never had the shovel "auto dig". I am currious if you have a mouse with macros, or some such system on your keyboard?? I personally have a Corsair mouse that I have set up a macro for the drilling rig. It sets the brake, drops the drill, raises the drill, then releases the brake & nudges dozer forward (which is my signal to move again). All the "spaces" between commands are reduced to the bare minimum to greatly reduce the time it takes to drill test holes.

So I am currious if you have some setting that repeats the LMB, a couple times, which is what is causing your shovel to "auto dig"?

Other posibility is that the key binding for the shovel (default LMB), has been assigned to another key, which may also be used for other stuff - hence the multiple activations.

Just one of those annoying bugs. Happend randomly with me aswell,but not able to reproduce to give accurate description.

You were very warm there... As it turns out, although I thought I had set all the controls to default somehow the Walking control for Action was set to 'right mouse movement' (the default is 'E'). So every time I dumped a shovel then moved my mouse to the right to turn around it would try and shovel again.

Thanks to all for responding.

Great to see a solution. Hopefully this information will be of some assistance to others that may have simular problems.
