Left handed movement with arrows

Post by TioQueToca74 »

Hello, I'm left handed, I use the arrows to move my character and in the map.

I had a issue where, when opening the map (defaults to M) in Nauvis, If using up/down arrow, it would move to the next location, the space platform.

Well, that was fixable in the settings, I changed it, and map started to work properly.... but only on Nauvis, If i'm using the map inside the space platform, up/down arrows would change surface.... the problem is that there don't seem to be a separate settings specific for space platforms, should not it be the same shortcut than for in-planet map?

Does anyone else has the same issue?

Edit: Interesting behavior, If I open the map from the space platform it behaves incorrectly with the arrows, but If I click on something inside the space platform, any entity, even an empty tile, arrows would then work as expected

[Koub] I'm going to move this to Gameplay Help for now. If necessary, I can be convinced to move it to Ideas and Suggestions later, if there is no way to do what you need @OP.

Thanks, it may also be a bug, the behavior is pretty strange unfortunately I don't know how to show the keystrokes on the screen, so I can record a small video where you see exactly the problem.

I didn't open it as a bug, because it may be some mistake I'm making, but feels pretty strange that the arrows behavior is not consistent across surfaces

Edit: I recorded the video

Note: That when the arrows work as expected, is when I click in the surface content, else it would move between surfaces despiste the controls setting to be changed not to do so
