Customized Keyboard Controls
I really am looking for a way to customize the keybard controls.
Is there any way to choose your own keyboard controls. I am so used to play 1 person shooter games with w--a--s--d being the mobe keys, an i should really like to swap the arrow-keys for these.
Any suggestions people?

You'll find the key bindings in the input.cfg file in your profile folder (in "My Documments/My Games/...").

Thanks!
That's great news! So I just have to swap the text-strings then?
It should have been possible from the games interface though.
Since you have answered me, I though about another thing that I wonder about.
In the game the mouse is hypersensitve regarding the right-click tooltips. When you get the tooltip by right-clicking, it often dissapears again since just a tiny movement makes it go away This makes the tooltip flicker and it can be frustrating 
My question therefor is if you happen to know if this applies to players in general or if the problem is "linked" to e.g the GeForce cards or so? I have heard about several people who have experienced this bug.
It is maybe not appropriate to mention this here, but since you are a moderator I thought you might have a good insight in the game.
Thanks for the AoH site - it is the best!
Best Regards from Darkeye

OK sorry to bother you with this off-topic question. But regarding the keyboard - I couldn't really find out how to swap the arrow keys, since it says in the file - do not change these! Are perhaps these arrow keys somehow locked to the mouse or so?
(and sorry for double posting, but I didnęt think you would see this message if I just edited the old one

About mouse right-click sensitivity, my feeling is that it's pretty general. I think it's partly a timer issue, as the popups automatically switch from short to long when you hover them for a few seconds. If you click around the timer's trigger, you get that weird effect.
About cursor shortcuts, did you try you new keys? You should of course keep a backup copy to revert your changes, but trying out is the best advice I have here. I did change other shortcuts successfully but never tried the arrow keys yet.

Thanks Sfidanza
Sorry for not answering you earlier.
Regarding the tooltip, it is not about the hover effect as I have set it to unlimited. It is about sensitivity, so the tooltip should have been locked in place as soon as you right-click. Though I don't know if most people experience this bug. I am using another mousemat now, which helps.
I'll try the arrow keys later on, and hopefylly it will not screw up the game. If it goes well I'll tell you.
I recently had so many problems with the game and I had to downgrade the game to 1.3 because of the gating problem. Thread -

A shame, since 1.4 introduces a great feature - that dwellings keep their creatures, and the artifact distribution picuture.
I hope Ubisoft now will fix the gate-crasher bug in the next patch (I have written to them).
Have you experienced this problem?
