Customizing/Binding

How to bind (from OniCentral)

When you want to add your own controls, make sure you do it underneath the heading "unbindall" and above "# default controls" in "key_config.txt".

You can delete binds from "# default controls", but make sure the bind is in the "unbindall" area. Edit the controls in "# misc" freely.

The bind command is structured the following way:

bind *key* to *action*

So if you would want to bind "kick" to / you would type:

bind slash to kick

N.B. Bindings that can't be changed are F8 (bound to shapeshifter) and Esc (exits to Main Menu and resumes).
