Controls and keybinds

Control complaints in the first week were mostly about two things: edge scrolling missing at launch, and custom keybinds resetting when a menu opened.

What changed

ItemVersionChange
Edge Scrolling1.0.5Added as an option in the Keyboard and Mouse settings
Custom keybinds1.0.4No longer reset when opening the Hub, Animal Trading or Animal Storage
Duplicate bindings1.0.5Fixed a crash caused by assigning several commands to the same key
Object browser focus1.0.5Focus stays in the search bar after selecting an object (fixed)
ESC hotkey1.0.5No longer stops working after using a nature brush

If a control still misbehaves

  1. Update to 1.0.5 — most bind-related reports predate it.
  2. Check whether the binding is duplicated: duplicates used to crash, and the game now has to resolve them.
  3. Rebind in the Keyboard and Mouse settings, then restart once to confirm it persists.
  4. Report with the exact menu path where the binding resets.

Default bindings are not reproduced here; the in-game settings screen is the authority and differs by platform.

FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about this topic.

Is edge scrolling in the game?

Yes, as an option added in 1.0.5 under Keyboard and Mouse settings.

Why do my keybinds reset?

That was fixed in 1.0.4 (Hub, Animal Trading and Animal Storage no longer reset them). Check the version.

Can I bind two commands to one key?

It is possible but was a crash source; 1.0.5 fixed the crash. Distinct bindings remain the safe default.
