Keyboard Shortcut for raising/lowering moves in multiples of 5 instead of 1.

Works as intended Tools & Construction UI & UX
reedemthed3ad [discord] · 7 months ago

As seen in the video, using the keyboard shortcut, now moves the layer up or down by 5 instead of 1 like it used to. Clicking the actual button in the UI still moves it by 1 properly.

Further testing shows that this does not affect terrain designations or transports such as belts or pipes, but does affect connectors, balancers, lifts, and sorters.

Default shortcut doesn't use Shift, shift is now the default modifier to apply height changes in multiples of x5

What was the reason for the change, and why does it only affect certain buildables, but not others?

Also, I had no idea it wasn't the default shortcut. I've been using it for as long as I can remember playing the game...

For height changes? It has never been the default shortcut that I can remember.

That is start in with the beta test before EA.

I guess I must've changed it early on then, what is default?

It must be something awful for me to want to change it lol

Then what are the rotate camera buttons then? I'm using E and Q to rotate the camera

Oh, that's an option... huh. Feels weird doing it now since I'm been using keyboard all this time.

I guess since I use WASD for primary camera movement, it just made since to keep the controls in one hand. I use left hand for camera and right hand for interactions.

I guess I do use WASD for camera movement, although I also use the mouse (edge scrolling and panning) at times as well.
Left hand is generally all of the key controls, right hand is mouse, so it all mixes together.
