Key Mapping

The ability to remap keys and shortcuts would be awesome.
Like I'd rather have inventory on E or TAB, I is just too far away.

 

Yeah, I agree. I'm a leftie and it sucks to have to move with anything other than the arrow keys.

 

This has been suggested so many times, and is such an absolute necessity.

 

Key binding is a must-have!
Please implement it as soon as possible. Game is unplayable for me in this stage...

 

Hi, i`m new. just brought this game. You forgot about something. Your setup is 100% not left handed players friendly... with this setup, for me (left handed person) is just UNPLAYABLE... really, simple jump is just a pain to press.

Better sort this out, because iwant to play this game, but i simple can not.. And i`m not the only left handed player

key mapping cant be so hard.

 

About 10 percent of the people are left handed. Think about that.

 

My spacebar is messed up, and it makes jumping such a pain. I love this game but I hate moving around in it. Please add key binding asap!

 

Just saying "I need this too".

I use my mouse with the left hand and arrow keys with the right hand. Playing FPS or games using WASD is really painfull and problematic to me. As alterative to space key, I use the right ctrl key.

I tried to emulate a keyboard with my joypad using the software JoyToKey and Xpadder, but after the last update I can't use any alternative to play starbound freely.

For a sandbox game like Starbound, choosing your own keys to play give option to improve your fun.

 

Sadly they hardcoded it into coreprogramm, so it dont read keybinds from separate file.
I'd assume it dont scan whole range of scancodes incoming from keyboard, but only those used for character controlls, having them hardcoded as commands IDs.

 

That sucks.

 

I play similarly. WASD has always felt clunky to me. I use my right hand for mouse movement and slide my keyboard over to the edge of my desk to use the arrows and surrounding keys with my left hand. As it is now I can barely play.

 

For a option, the devs can adapt an option to use gamepads.

 

Pleeeeeeeeease at the very least move the inventory button over, the one and only thing about this game thats is annoying!!!!

....and duplicate a similar setup on the other side for lefties ofc!!!

 

I agree AwesomeArab. Using the B button to bring up the backpack would be awesome as well. Key shortcuts changes are a must, IMO.
