Greetings ! Here is an annoying issue I hope to be easy enough to resolve.
Category: Keybinding / Build Mode / Localization
Severity: High
Description:
In Build Mode, the movement keys (W and A) cannot be rebound in the settings. The French localization of the game uses AZERTY keyboard layout as a standard, where movement is mapped to Z (forward) and Q (left). W and A do not correspond to any movement input on this layout, making it nearly impossible to navigate freely while in Build Mode for French-speaking players.
Steps to reproduce :
- Set the game language to French
- Use the default AZERTY keyboard layout [ (Z;UP) (Q;LEFT) (S;DOWN) (D;RIGHT) ]
- Enter Build Mode
- Attempt to move around using standard AZERTY movement keys (Z, Q, S, D)
- Observe that movement is severely restricted or non-functional
Expected behavior:
The French localization should either ship with a pre-configured AZERTY keybinding profile, or all movement keys in Build Mode should be fully rebindable, consistent with the rest of the game.
Actual behavior:
W and A are locked in Build Mode and cannot be rebound, making navigation extremely difficult or impossible for French players using the default AZERTY layout.
Impact:
Build Mode is largely unusable for French players, which significantly limits access to a core game feature and reflects poorly on the quality of the French localization. This likely affects any other non-QWERTY language localization as well.
