Rebinding Keys in Archived
Unlike in most similar RPG titles, rebinding keys in Archived is done through the in-game chat. The command that you have to use is !bind. To reset a keybind to its default value, use the !reset command. Here are the arguments that you can use along with these commands and examples of their correct usage:
| Command | Example |
|---|---|
| !bind [ControlName] [NewKeybind] [Overwrite (true or false)] | !bind ManifestEGO x !bind Parry f true (F becomes Parry) |
| !reset [ControlName] | !reset ManifestEgo |
