Any way to change keybinding?

Post by Tagman »

Like the title says. I want to reconfigure my keyboard bindings, so I can scroll with WASD.
Is that possible?

This would be a welcome addition for sure!
I've been beta testing myself for decades.

WASD is needed.

I'd like that too; but when it comes to scrolling, what I'd kill for is a mouse click-and-drag to move the map view around.

I created a quick-and-dirty workaround with autohotkey.
See the script and already compiled program in the linked archive.

This script basically rebinds WASD to the arrow keys and shift+WASD to the orginally WASD keybinds.
Right now these rebinds are apllied everywhere. You need to pause/suspend the script in the taskbar, to have normal binds again.
If this script is actually usefull, I could make it a bit more user friendly.

You can check my profile for the link to the script or pm me if its not visible.
As I can't attach archives directly to this post and also cannot link directly in posts yet.

Yes, scrolling with mouse click and drag would be awesome. I always move the map when I dont want to when I want to highlight or click something near the edge of my screen.
