Without a separate numeric keypad, you need to find some keys to map to the eight cardinal directions. Diagonal movement is key to the game, so you can't just use the actual arrow keys. So, ideally, I wanted a 3x3 rough square of keys on the main keyboard area that I could allocate for movement.
In Angband, most of the letters and punctuation on the main keyboard area are already allocated. You can rebind them, but since the different items need different commands, I don't think that there was any way to collapse multiple verbs onto the same key.
- thaumasiotes 7y agoNo, but the existence of the roguelike keyset demonstrates that there is space on the keyboard for every command. Why do you need to collapse multiple verbs onto the same key?
