optional control fix/suggestion

Post by affa »

Hi,

Old school rpg'r here -- i LOVE this game.

however, i'm playing on a laptop, and the game is killing my wrists. i'm also left handed, which may explain something.

please provide options to let us:

-switch effect of left and right click (so, left click attacks)
-use arrow keys for movement. not sure what to use for turning, but wasd isn't for everyone.

That's why these games often used the numeric pad. In any case, if you want to use the arrow keys to move, just do it. There's a "key config" button on the settings screen...

Actually, I did.
The 'key config' button is down at the bottom and in the same style as 'apply/cancel' so my eyes skipped over it since all other options are way at the top.

And key config does not let me flip left/right mouse clicks, which is what i -really- want to be able to do.

I actually felt that this game is made for the left handed in that respect. Attacking using RMB just feels a bit unnatural to me (I'm right handed), but I can make it work.
I always thought that the mouse settings in Windows apply to all other programs. If they don't, there's probably a program that can help you with that.

Aside form a few oddballs, us lefties don't reverse the buttons. :)
