axxgog: Hi there, I'm trying to remap keys on dosbox to be able to move with WASD, AKA press A or D key to rotate head your head, not slide. My laptop like most does not have separate numpad/keypad and no matter what I try to remap in dosbox, the engine only allows me to slide not rotate. Did anyone have success with this?
I remapped my keys so that WASD was forward, backwards, and sliding left to right. I set Q and E to act as the left and right rotation. You can remap/rebind the keys within DOSBOX by pressing Ctrl + F1 and making the edits in there. The only thing I'd have to say is that it makes typing and entering notes on the map a bit more difficult, as a single press of any of the keys I changed suddenly types out 3 letters ("E" becomes "EII"). It's not a deal breaker, since I can easily delete the extra letters after each keystroke.
