Remapping

Edit config file[4]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open PLAYER_CONTROLS.TXT.
  3. Find the action you want to remap and change the value behind <STRING>INPUT0: (gamepad) or <STRING>INPUT1: (keyboard/mouse) accordingly.
  4. Change the number of <INTEGER>VERSION: to 200 to prevent the game from overwriting it. Keeping a backup file is recommended however.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/404680/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (404680) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
