Change Camera keybindings (arrow key player)

[thick shoal]

Hi !!

I am an arrow key player (to be more precise, i play with 6 arrows and not 4). I use up, down, left and right to move around. Every time i use LEFT and RIGHT, the camera also moves (because i guess the camera is also binded to those keys) which makes it really annoying.

Is there anything i can do to access an "ini config" file and change camera key bindings?

Thank you,
Oziris

Not using that side of the keyboard for this game (altough i do for others) but, have you checked if there is a keybind for the TURNING LEFT/RIGHT in the game settings? If Yes, have you tried to rebind them to something else?

Hey !
Thanks for seeing my message and taking time to answer. So I have checked and there isn't this option, unfortunately 🙁

[gray reef]

As far i have seen, this is an UE game engine, it "should" have a .ini file for the keybind settings. Didn't checked yet as i have only tweaked the core files for the game to runs better, but if the settings for the keybinds are saved correctly on the . ini file, there you should be able to see them, otherwise, we have to wait for the keybind customization to be expanded.

Thanks for your report, we'll look into it

[thick shoal]

I have looked for that ini file (fast look because i'm on stream and don't wanna make people wait whilst i'm searching) and i couldn't see it, but that is exactly what i am looking for. I had this problem on Cyberpunk 2077 when it released, and i was able to change the keybinds thanks to the config.ini file, and all went well after that.

Thank you very very much ! Cpaciba ❤️

I also play with arrow Keys, although 4 arrow Keys, i dont have that issue

[thick shoal]

You mean, you are moving with UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT arrows but it doesn't affect your camera in-game ???

[frail jolt]

Yes

[thick shoal]

😮 ! What am I doing wrong then ?

[frail jolt]

Left and right kinda turn a little, but i think thats how it is

[gray reef]

That is the issue. You should NOT turn at all

[frail jolt]

Got to test wasd then to See a diff

[thick shoal]

If i rebing left and right to Q and D, then I do not have this turning camera issue. It's only when i bind LEFT and RIGHT arrows.

[frail jolt]

That was one issue bothering me, but i got used to it

[gray reef]

binding the movements to WASD or ◄▼▲► should MOVE your character only, not turning it

[thick shoal]

the camera moving every time i turn is giving me motion sickness

[frail jolt]

Ok Good to know, thx maybe it will get fixed and i wont get dizzy

[thick shoal]

you are also getting dizzy hahah 😄

[gray reef]

That is because the CAMERA TURNING is either by mouse axis or with ◄▼▲►

So, again, rebinding WASD to ◄▼▲► should literally OVERRIDE the camera turning to become character movements

[frail jolt]

Well its okay, i have vr, thats worse xd

Is there a config?

Somewhere?

I mean seriously i played like this since the Demo xd

I really thought it was intentionally

[thick shoal]

its not intentionnal. If you really don't want it to turn at all, you must rebind left and right to Q and D until the devs add a new binding option for camera.

[gray reef]

So, THERE IS a "turning" camera keybind?

I can't check the client atm i am at work

[thick shoal]

No, there isnt. I was talking about the "go left, go right"

[restive pagoda]

Three people on my server alone play with arrow keys and are struggling with this problem… if they fix this the game will be so much better for us to play!!!

It works fine with ships using arrow keys, and WASD can strafe just fine.

They just need to disconnect the camera stuff from arrow keys when they are blind to movement or anything else, or put an option to change or remove the keybind for camera from the arrow keys, and problem solved I hope!

[pine kestrel]

Same here! I reported this in the Demo a long time ago. you all still have not fixed the issue with rebinding the Move Left and Right keys being rebound to the Arrow keys. It still rotates the camera Right and left.

And honestly, why is this even a thing? Makes no sense to rotate the camera when the mouse does it for you. Please fix this!!!!

[robust pond]

Arrow keys problem seems to be the part of the more general key binding problem, we're investigating what causes it. Thank you for your patience!

[restive pagoda]

Awesome news!!! Thanks so much!

[gaunt snow]

ahah +1 ,same for me
very annoying

[gaunt snow]

It's like this, with arrow key 🙂
sorry for 30fps, it's bandicam ahha

with ZQSD, no problem
but, like Oziris, i don't play with ZQSD 🙂

[thick shoal]

Yes, this is the problem i have.

[noble siren]

ZQSD has another problem of "Q" being hardcoded in certain menus.
The game has a general issue of hardcoded keybinds, there's quite a lot of them actually.

And that is despite them being reported in the demo build 😕

[gaunt snow]

I know :p for illustrate your post ahah

[gaunt snow]

Ahah yes, for sure. In bed , Q is here ... So sometimes, miss clic and he sleep haha

[thick shoal]

• 🇶 + bed (wanting to go left out of bed but end up sleeping again).
• ⬅️ ➡️ moving (wanting to walk to the left or right but camera also moves).
• 🇶 + chests (auto transferring items to chests everytime you walk next to it).

Hi, any update on this issue pls ?

[gaunt snow]

Nop

[gaunt snow]

So? Any news?

[robust pond]

We're working on a fix, can't give any estimates for now.

[gaunt snow]

Oh yeah. Thanks
