I change the WASD key bindings to ASDF (D = forward). It's more natural for a typist and makes a greater number of adjacent keys accessible.
That... That is wild
I used to change
WASDkeybindings toESDFfor a similar reason. And in most of my emulators,IJKLstand fortriangle,square,x, andcircle(or their other console equivalents) respectively.The rest are more or less assigned depending on the console. Since I mostly play PS1 games, the rest of the bindings are follows:
L1:AL2:QR1:;R2:PGHDid you own a spectrum?
I don't know what that is. If you're asking if I'm on it, I haven't been diagnosed.
1980s personal computer. ASDF was standard for a lot of games on it.
My first computer was an Apple IIe.
So do you control left and right (A and S) with your pinkie and ring fingers, and forward and back (D and F) with middle and index?
As opposed to someone controlling A with ring finger, D with index and using middle finger for both W and S.
I can see how that makes sense if you're used to using the pinkie a lot for typing.
It's A (pinky) strafe left, S (ring) go back, D (middle) go forward, F (index) strafe right.
Oh ok, I can see how that would work. Interesting, thanks 👍
