Abstract:
Add the ability to remap SHIFT and CONTROL, such as to mouse buttons or other keyboard buttons.
Remapping SHIFT or CONTROL in this way would remap any in-game command that uses them (such as adding a half-stack of ammo to a turret, or taking half a turret's stack).
Observation:
I tried to remap Shift to multiple other buttons (including mouse 4 & 5) and could not reassign it where a 2-key combo existed (ex. Shift + right-click).
Why Implement:
1. Hand cramps
2. More versatility and user options for remapping controls.
Thank you for your time devs/mods, I love the game you have made and hope you are well.

Re: Alternate Key Mapping for SHIFT and CONTROL
Oh, that's a tough one. They are meta keys at a very low level in the computer, making them impossible to remap (although one could remap something like Ctrl-Q, memorable as I have Additional Turrets.) I've also gotten very used to how they work and I'm pretty sure the more famous AntiElitz would also glow a basket if it were changed. I like the idea, but I don't see any way of implementing it without shattering something.
