I'd like to be able to use the WASD keys for custom buttons when making my game because I've ran out of other hotkeys and I need more.

Plus we got the arrow keys, so we can still move our players around.

I'm sorry but I can't support this. I use WASD for controls all the time and if they removed that then I would be very confused with the alternate controls as I have not used them in 4 years.

Do you realize how hard it is to control with arrow keys, many of the games there are would be ruined. And why do you need that many hotkeys, geez.

I play with arrow keys and it's pretty easy.

That doesn't mean it is easy for others. It's just like I said, I have not used arrow keys in 4 years on this game.

Why don't they just remove arrow key movement instead and then you can make the arrow keys the hotkeys
Sorry but most people use WASD movement, they would never do this

Arrow keys are unsuitable for hotkeys, they should just be for controls like they are now

You can use the arrow keys with your left hand?

Yeah um, there are these things called arms. Kind of makes it difficult to use arrow keys with your left hand. It is a pretty weird position considering the arrows are on the right end of the keyboard.

Not to mention I play in first person, so my right hand always has to be on the mouse. I don't know how you guys play but honestly they would never remove WASD movement.

But it's better to play in third person, you can see the area around your character?

Anyway, until this update happens the development on my game is stuck.

I used to play third person back when I first started playing Roblox 6 years ago. However I've since been using first person since most of the other games I play are first-person as well. It makes it much easier to turn the camera and look around, seeing around the character doesn't really matter too much when you can turn quickly.

No support. Too many people use WASD, and it's also known worldwide as the normal movement keys for games. No point in removing it.

If you want an insane number of hotkeys, try Ctrl+(Key), Alt+(Key) or Shift+(Key) hotkeys.

Removing WASD movement would alienate lots of users that use them. Pretty much every PC game out there uses WASD for some kind of movement.

Arrow keys are for menu navigation. You've got 22 other letters to choose from.

(I'm assuming that you aren't trolling here)

Wait that works for hotkeys in ROBLOX?

so you have so many hotkeys that you ran out?
you have 32 letters and numbers you can use and likely some other keys I'm not counting
your game would be confusing as crap and would be too hard to play
