Can't customize camera keys?

Can't customize camera keys?

Why are the camera keys locked to the default WASD? I want to use WERD, but it won't let me change them.

Actually, the ability to have Replays, or game movies, also seems to be in the game (I've watched a couple) but for some unfathomable reason, they are not implemented either.  Shrug.

It'd be a simple job for anyone to fix, if they didn't asshat the mod support.

this obviously should be built in, but it is easily fixed.  Just get AHK (autohotkey). 

A rebind script looks like (minus the space

a:: s -- 'a' rebound to 's'

No answer to this yet?

Why is camera controls the only thing locked in the control menu? Why would they put the fields there if you couldn't change them?

Im going to throw my Bump in here.  The first things i made changes to in the game were a.) Graphics and b.) Keybindings

But alas, i could not rebind the keys to my liking.

On board with everyone else: Why was this not a built in feature??!!

Wow that's a lot of bumping,

can someone please explain why changing the camera keys is such a bit deal? I don't understand the fuss.

Gah, just got the game and the first thing I did was go in to reverse Q and E since it seems just about every game dev company gets Q and E backwards.  But the game wouldnt let me!  WTF!?  Absolutely ridiculous!  Poor form! 

On a side note, I almost got them reversed by guessing at what the commands might be:
UserKeyMap = {
  Q = 'rotate_right',
  E = 'rotate_left'
}

Only issue is that rotate_right and rotate_left are step commands, not pan commands.. so doesnt really work yet.  Anyone happen to know where I can find all the key commands?

That being said, I'm enjoying the game a lot, but this keyboard thing is a serious detractor to my fun.

In some countries you have other keyboard layouts...

Kell, there also seems to be replays set up in the game; folders and recordings and everything, it just was'nt "implemented" either, like the remapable keys.  Don't ask me wyhy not :S

I'm waiting for the possibility to change keys too! It's very inconvienet by default :( Can somebody from Stardock or GPG tell us if they're going to fix this?

I will sign this.

 

Would love to have middle mouse enter free rotate. Seems very strange and unfinished that you can not change these keys.

I have the same problem. 

 

I have an ability bound to the delete key. (I'm left handed)  Every time I use that ability the camera rotates on me. Very annoying.

Strangest thing is it must have been a conscious decision to not allow these key bindings to be changed. I can't imagine any possible reason but I'm sure there must be one....

 

I suppose we may never know.
