Question about Controls.txt file
« on: October 27, 2010, 11:16:20 am »
Hi,
   Just had a question.  Obviously a lot of things have changed in the beta, is the controls.txt file up to date with verison 4.0?  Just wondering.

We had intended to remove it entirely, apparently that didn't work ;)  The up-to-date listing is in the View Controls screen under the Settings window.

Thanks.  Early senility setting in.  Didn't even see the view controls button.

Yea, it's been there for a long time but was typically out-of-date compared to controls.txt since it was a huge image instead of text.  But now it's got a text-based list of the static controls and the other ones are actually now all re-bindable KeyBinds and thus the controls screen can just pull the data of "what key does what" live from the game rather than our updating it independently :)
