How much of your Keyboard/Mouse do you use?

[TimePeriod]

Hi!

Am I the only one here who uses the entire keyboard to play this game? I even had to bring in my keypad to get all my buttons included.

How much of your keyboard do you use during gaming sessions?

I think about half of it: AWSD, TF, R, IJKLNH, M, X, shift, control, tab, [ & ], several 'F' keys.... and the mouse for camera control

you should try using spacebar for staging. super cool

[Spartwo]

All the regular stuff, IJKL, and OP.

No, he finds picnics on the launchpad fun...

KasperVld should also learn about action groups.

I tried using half a mouse once. It didn't work.

As much as I'd use for any game, I think, not that I play PC games much.

Besides the obvious, there's right shift, which typically replaces Alt since I'm on Linux. There are the various shortcuts added by Editor Extensions: V for vertical snapping, and I think Alt+R to enable surface attachment and save me a cuboct strut. And that's about it.

everything except scroll lock.

Wait, what? We have a key for that?

I have rover throttle set to IJKL as well as WASD that way I can choose easily if I want to use SAS or not. U is my lights rather than L.

I use the keyboard for everything not involving the mouse... I don't have an Xbox controller set up though I do have a few I could use.

I use so many buttons when driving rovers... xD

Q,W,E,A,S,D for gyro,

Numpad 8,4,5,6 for steering & driving,

H,N,J,K,L,I for RCS,

8 to toggle rear steering

R,T to toggle RCS & SAS

This isn't GTA here!

WASD, Q, E, T, R, G, U (lights), space, backspace (reset map focus)... Pretty much it right? Sometimes 1-3 for action groups and F2 / F3 / F5 / F9 if that counts. I have throttle up down and off, map view toggle, and time warp mapped to my mouse in addition to its normal uses. It's massively convenient that way.

I use [tab] key for precision mode (caps lock annoy me) and had set up right shift and control for second throttle controls... Also I had forward/back controls in docking more switched to throttle keys.

And I use keyboard arrow keys for camera control - it's faster.

That control box is awesome!

[sewerbird]

I have a joystick with a buttload of buttons, so I mostly only use keys in the VAB for rotating, snapping, and symmetrying parts. In flight I still use 'X' to cut throttle or to write flag descriptions (of course).

[katateochi]

There just aren't enough keys!! At least when using Infernal Robotics. All the usual ones & I end up using all the number keys, - + \ z ; ' # o p basically everything as I'd rather have keyboard control of robotic parts than have to use the mouse interface.
