Omniraptor:
oh, forgot about that... I use mouse buttons for altitude and throttle, only steer with ring and index finger (A/D).

With the new system, I would bind tools to the keys (3), (W), and (S), the column between A/D. So, that would leave my middle finger dedicated to tools, and pinky (SHIFT) for voice chat. Woo hoo, all five fingers have a clear job to do in combat!

p.s. speaking of which, GOI's default keyboard bindings are a thing of cosmic horror. Seriously, for example how am I supposed to change altitude (S) and chat (X) and turns left (D) all at the same time? It's a pretty common combination that is horribly inconvenient to do.

First thing I did when I got into game was say "nope" to the default controls and immediately change W/S to throttle controls, then put altitude as R/F. As my fingers naturally rest on WASD from sheer habit, this is a pretty easy position for my fingers, but W is "forward" in my mind, while S is back. They do not equal up and down. I basically had no choice but to change that right away. I've never had a problem using X+A+R though to talk while ascending and turning left, though I don't usually use 3 keys at once anyway.

Queso:
I moved voice chat over to my mouse thumb buttons and switched ascend to s and descend to w. For some reason that made the most sense for my fingers.

Dementio:
It took me a while to get used to the default settings, but I never changed them. The only things I did change was I disabled the ability to switch tools with the mouse wheel and switch the party voice chat button, because I have a QWERTZ keyboard and I can't press Z like this.

Richard LeMoon:
As a person that primarily uses scroll wheel for helm tools, click/hold to activate is welcome.
