Default Key Bindings
I was thinking about the current button setup for building,
The Good: Keeping the L hand on WASD while keeping the R hand on the mouse is a brilliant idea. I never much liked the K button or the L for light, but it is what it is.
Could be better: The mouse wheel scrolls through 1-9. At first I found myself a little frazzled by that, but I found it nice to not have to fumble my L hand around my keyboard. I like being able to switch, but I don't want to be in a fire fight and accidentally click the mouse wheel and put my gun away for my welder. Seems too easy and not necessary. In SE1 (Steam says I played 1600hrs.) I really liked the ability to put 1 block (e.g. light armor block) into the quick bar and scroll through the shapes I needed with the wheel. Made building dynamic ships so much easier. The R button to cycle through big and small of the same type is cumbersome. PROPOSED CHANGE: Make the scroll wheel cycle block types like SE1, but push ALT+Scroll to cycle 1-9. That would be insanely handy.
Cheers. Can't wait for all you folks come up with.
