Please support rebinding movement hotkeys for keyboards

[dejadk]

I play with ESDF instead of WASD for keyboard movement. One of the first things I tried to do after purchasing Rotwood was rebind my hotkeys. I found the "Basic controls" and "Combat actions" sections of the keyboard controls but I did not see a place for me to rebind my movement hotkeys. I can't get into Rotwood just yet because of this, I'll have to put it to the side for now, the muscle memory is too strong for me to make the switch over to WASD.

I'm a huge fan of Don't Starve and I always enjoyed the support of being able to rebind any action to suit any preferred key layout. Thank you, I really appreciate your time and your games.

I'm left handed so yeah I feel you, I simply cannot play this game on keyboard unless I could move from using numpad controls on at least keys more on the right.

I still have the game sitting in my Steam library waiting, but I also can't play until they allow for rebinding movement keys. I trust that they'll get to it eventually though.

I'm hoping for this addition too, would be so nice if I can play with arrow keys

Me too! I'm still patiently waiting for this change so I can start playing the game. I've been trying to keep up with the patch notes via Steam.
