Is there no way to change the keyboard layout?

[Kahlua]

I know Sam (or one of you guys) said the keyboard layout was built in...but to be honest it's the only reason I'm on the border of switching over from my phone or not. I'm noticing my vision getting worse and being very blurry after staring at my little phone screen and I'd really rather play on my laptop. However, my mouse I use is very sensitive to finger movement (Apple Magic Mouse) and keeps adjusting the size of the screen or backtracking to the home page. Because of this I have to use the trackpad if I want to use a mouse. Here are my issues with the keyboard to date:

1. WASD is fine for movement, it feels natural. However, using E and Q to turn the screen does not. For someone like me who moves around A LOT when playing, I find that I have to play extremely different with this layout. Doing all that with 1 hand feels unnatural and makes my play very sloppy. An idea I had for this would be to use the right and left arrow keys to turn the camera. As these keys right now change targets (Very randomly might I add...I tried to switch to a target right next to one I was shooting at, and it instead picked one all the way down range and refused to switch back), you could instead use the up/down arrow keys to change targets. Same concept, just an up/down order instead of right/left. I think using 2 hands to turn the camera and move your account is more natural to all of us, as I'm assuming the majority of us use our skills hand to swipe the screen to turn the camera. Since the space bar is within thumb range (and I have small hands, so I know the majority can reach it just fine) shooting with just the keyboard wont be an issue and you more than likely will not require a second hand. This layout is of course optional for those who like to use a mouse.

2. No shortcut known right now for stims/mana packs. Anyone who doesn't want to die a lot will likely not use Chrome to play because it takes a lot longer to use a stim pack or a mana pack because you have to slide the mouse key down to it. Yes it's a simple movement, but just clicking it with your finger is a lot faster and is almost a subconscious action at this point . If the skills and such have a shortcut, then I don't see why these can't too (unless programming it isn't possible lol).

3. No shortcut key for avatar screen/inventory/whatever that HUB is called. I'm pretty sure as of right now all we can do is click the gear icon in the top left corner to get here, and a keyboard shortcut, while not needed, would be very nice!


Also, can I just say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the typing interface. So fast and easy to use! I don't think I'll ever accidently end a plural word in an "a" again! Stupid phone keyboards.

EDIT: Using a macbook pro.



Let me know what y'all think, I'm curious to see if anyone else is noticing the difficulty in one handed moving and turning.
