Using Auto Move
In a bid to minimise the number of buttons players must hold down to navigate the world, we have introduced Auto Move.
Activating Auto Move will put a player’s character in a state of perpetual motion. They will continue to walk or swim forward, turning at your command, until they hit a wall or are consumed by the perils of nature herself. Furthermore, it will continue to work when you dock to certain interactables such as ladders, where you’ll proceed upwards, and capstans, which you’ll raise.
To cancel Auto Move either press the button again or move backwards for a moment.
For keyboard users the button is mapped by default to the Num Lock key. This can be remapped:
- Navigate to Settings – Keyboard and Mouse
- Move to the section titled Movement
- Select and remap Auto Move
For controller users the button is not mapped by default. To map it:
- Navigate to Settings – Controller
- Move to the section titled Movement
- Select and remap Auto Move
