Programmable keys

from Elemental Forums

I would find it wonderful if in options there was a section to allow us to set or change certain key functions in the game.  Primarily the rotate camera key, but also next unit, next city, etc..  

 

In elemental I was able to reprogram a key to middle-click and camera control worked fine, but that doesn't seem to be the case in FE.

 

Thanks!

Yeah, I want to see fully custom hotkeys. I don't understand typical strategy game hotkeys, they're terrible.

They're especially bad in Elemental - why can't I hotkey units and cities? Instead the # keys are used for pointless camera angles.

Similarly, I'd much rather use werd/esdf to move the camera instead of arrow keys or drag scrolling, then my left hand can move the camera and select key armies/cities, while my right hand stays on the mouse.
