# Gamepad Layout by @wavebeem
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The concept behind this layout is the left side of a computer keyboard,
|
||
|
|
optimized with essential keys for playing FPS games. It was designed for TheVan
|
||
|
|
RoadKit, but it should work for any 4x4 ortholinear keyboard.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I play with my pinky on `Shift`, thumb on `Space`, and the rest of my fingers on
|
||
|
|
`W A S D`. I use my thumb for `Control`, `X`, and sometimes `C`. I usually use
|
||
|
|
`Z` with my ring finger. It also helps to angle my fingers more perpendicular to
|
||
|
|
the board in order to allow my thumb to more easily access the `Z X C` row.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The number keys `1 2 3` are missing for weapon switching, but you can usually
|
||
|
|
switch with the mouse wheel or rebind those to `Z X C` or something else.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The key `R` for reloading is missing, but I prefer to use my extra mouse buttons
|
||
|
|
for that.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I don't really use `Alt` for games, but I kept it around for `Alt-Tab` in
|
||
|
|
Windows.
