Keybindings messed up
Hello Frederick.
Yes, it is me, Dave3d

I bought Ion Maiden when it was 10% off, but I could NOT play it at all, as when I rebound keys to right side keyboard, the game became unplayable.

Setting forward/backwards/left/right to the Arrow keys, made going forward = Arrow up PLUS w, and arrow down = Backwards PLUS s, and Arrow Left = Strafe Left PLUS Turn Left, etc.
Setting Forward to = Left mouse made forward PLUS Arrow PLUS w.
Setting shooting to Right Mouse made it so that I would go Forward PLUS I would also Zoomin (or was it Fire, or secondary fire?) Something like that.

Basically, you had hardcoded keys in, PLUS you had a secondary key system (that is useless, and just causes issues).

Have you fixed BOTH the hardcoded keys AND getting rid of the second column for secondary keys ?

If you hover over either column, for instance "Forward" with default binds "Keypad 8" and "W", simply hit the Delete key on your keyboard to remove that bind. You can remove both binds too. If I'm reading it right, you want to move forward with your mouse button, so I guess you might want to do that. I hope that answers your question. (Not a bug.)

Yes a bug.
I removed the far right column, and it still acted like everything was still there.
This leads me to believe there are hardcoded bindings in the game.
Are you telling me 100% there are no hardcoded keybindings?
Because I have qa'ed a LOT of games in the last 6 years, and this is ALWAYS the case when this happens, unless someone has a bug in the key table or multiple key files are present and there is a sync bug.
There is DEFINITELY one of those going on, so instead of saying its not a bug, check first.
I forwarded this to Fred also, since we worked on Duke Reloaded together, and people who use the right side keyboard (you know, OLD school gamers, who you are targeting this game to) tend to use their own weird keybinds and not the standard wasd, not to mention Lefties.

The controls have default bindings (of course), but not hard coded permanent ones.

When I play I generally use 8456 instead of wasd, for example. If you have conflicting or overlapping bindings you can delete them just be highlighting the binding and pressing DELETE.

Yes, I did that. I deleted the 2nd column and tried over, with the exact same result.
Maybe you need an option to completely remove the secondary keybinding column altogether, and JUST have 1 column of keybindings.
But that would be too easy a fix right?
Anyway, I cant do any further testing since I got a refund and no longer have the game.
:(
