Q should close inventory

Post by onebit »

Inventory is opened with E. It makes sense to close it with E. But Q closed all the other menus, so why not also close inventory with Q? I think Q is the ESC key of Factorio.

I played the game last night after a break of several months and kept hitting Q to close inventory.

Flash back to 2014!

I close my inventory using "Q" because that's how I set up my keybinds from the in-game menu.

I also set the hand-crafting to CTRL+SHIFT+click so that I don't accidentally mess up my "lazy bastard" achievement.

I don't know what default keybindings are anymore. Is Q normally remove item from cursor? Because it doesn't make sense to have that close the inventory, I'd rather it stayed default behaviour.

You can backup your config and then delete it. New config with defaults is created.

What? "Q" doesn't close any GUI...

Or... just use the "reset" button in the controls settings.

I think I got used to E. I still think something feels off when you first start.
