Keybinds and Controls

This guide will help you navigate and interact with the environment using your mouse and keyboard. Below are the keybindings organized into easy-to-read tables, along with detailed descriptions to enhance your experience.

Table of Contents

Mouse Controls

Use your mouse to control the camera's orientation and zoom level.

Action Keybind Description
Orbit Camera Left Mouse Button (Hold) Rotate the camera around a focal point by holding the left mouse button and moving the mouse.
Rotate Camera Right Mouse Button (Hold) Adjust the camera's rotation by holding the right mouse button and moving the mouse.
Zoom In/Out Mouse Scroll Wheel Scroll the wheel up to zoom in and scroll down to zoom out.

Keyboard Controls

Camera Movement

Navigate the camera through the simulation using the following keys:

Action Keys Description
Move Forward W or Up Arrow Moves the camera forward in the simulation space.
Move Left A or Left Arrow Moves the camera to the left side.
Move Backward S or Down Arrow Moves the camera backward.
Move Right D or Right Arrow Moves the camera to the right side.
Move Upward Q Raises the camera upward.
Move Downward E Lowers the camera downward.

Camera Speed

Adjust the speed of the camera movement to suit your preference:

Action Keybind Description
Increase Speed Left Shift (Hold) Hold down the Left Shift key to move the camera faster.
Normal Speed Release Left Shift Releases the Left Shift key to return to normal movement speed.

Simulation Controls

Manage the simulation state with these keybinds:

Action Keybind Description
Pause/Resume Spacebar Toggles between pausing and resuming the simulation.
Restart Simulation R Restarts the simulation from the beginning.
Toggle Configuration Panel L Opens or closes the configuration selector panel for adjusting simulation settings.

Additional Controls

Enhance your interaction with the simulation using these additional keybinds:

Action Keybind Description
Toggle Auto-Rotate P Enables or disables the camera's auto-rotate feature.
Quit Application Esc Exits the simulation application.

Preset Views

Quickly switch to predefined camera angles for different perspectives:

Action Keybind Description
Preset View 1 1 Switches to the first predefined camera view.
Preset View 2 2 Switches to the second predefined camera view.
Preset View 3 3 Switches to the third predefined camera view.
Preset View 4 4 Switches to the fourth predefined camera view.
Preset View 5 5 Switches to the fifth predefined camera view.
Preset View 6 6 Switches to the sixth predefined camera view.

Note: The implementation for preset views may be added in future updates.

Tips for Effective Navigation

  • Combining Controls: Feel free to combine mouse and keyboard controls for a more dynamic navigation experience. For example, hold the Left Shift key while moving the camera forward with the W key for faster traversal.
  • Pausing for Adjustments: Use the Spacebar to pause the simulation, allowing you to adjust camera angles or settings without interruption.
  • Exploring Views: Utilize the preset views to quickly jump to different perspectives, making it easier to explore various aspects of the simulation.

We hope this guide enhances your experience. Happy simming!
