Question about possible key bindings. (X4) - Explained.
Hey guys.
Initially when I bought this game, I had some real issues with key bindings.
I need to use the enter key, page up/down and arrow keys for other than the default things.
I am unable to use WASD.
But at launch the game did not allow re-binding those keys.
So at the time I asked for a refund as I was unable to play the game.
Now.
I wonder if the game is updated enough to allow rebinding of those.
Knowing if this is possible or not will help me decide whether or not I should buy this game again.
Best Regards
Me

Re: Question about possible key bindings. (X4)
Do you really have to use the arrow bindings?
You could use any key on your keyboard. For example the numpad on the keyboard. Mine is set at ZQSD sinds I have an azerty keyboard.
if you want af fast switch between azerty or querty keys you could use the ALT+SHIFT hotkey to switch in between.
Many people here play with joysticks. There are a lot of options from there to.
Egosoft has been focusing on 3.0 and now on 4.0 mostly.
A lot of things has been improved but I didn't see any updates about keybindings pass by.

Yea, I play wth joystick also , a combo of joystick and kb/mouse. but I can not use other keys
Re: Question about possible key bindings. (X4)
I've just checked in the game, and you seem to be able to rebind the arrow keys, the page up/down keys, and the enter key. I don't remember the ability to bind these having been added recently, and I can't find any reference to them being added in the release notes, so I'm somewhat surprised to hear that you say that couldn't rebind them at release.

So I bought it again, turns out that it is not possible to bind:
R-Shift
R-Control
Del
Right mouse button
These are 4 show-stoppers for me sadly.

Re: Question about possible key bindings. (X4) - Explained.
Unfortunately your OP didn't mention those keys and so CBJ was not in a position to forewarn you of the game's actual rebinding limitatations.
Have you considered using keyboard/mouse macros to 'emulate' the functions of those key inputs using other mousebuttons/keys/combinations? I don't know if that would help you at all.
I also don't know if anything in Windows' accessibility section could help you.

There are also alternative keyboards, that load up a traditional qwerty keyboard in different ways which may give you more options. As in the layout of keys is not traditional, including items like curved keyboards intended for using a single hand.
