Point-and-click shooting
Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2021 3:04 pm
I would like to somehow arm or equip the current weapon in such a way that it's hooked up to the mouse pointer, and can be aimed and fired by point-and-click.
My problem: Somehow muscle memory is bad enough that I cannot alternate between C and WASD without accidents. Using different hotkeys doesn't help.
I have tried adjusting the controls so that I would fire the currently equipped weapon at a click. Works wonderfully, except if I forget to unset it after combat... I have on occasion blown up my factory. So what I'd like to have would be a mechanism that a) can be toggled easier than going through settings->controls and that b) gives me a visual indication if I'm currently in point-and-shoot mode, perhaps by replacing the mouse pointer with crosshairs.
