Hey! I tried to do this but the keybinds still don’t apply, is it because my game is being run on Steam?
What is the issue caused by AutoHotkey not working in the game?
Appreciate the help!
Hello, Melly! Thank you for taking the time to comment. Unfortunately, some have reported that it doesn’t work for some reason. You can try other third-party programs of the same nature, like SharpKeys (but it’s much complicated – open source).
Nonetheless, no worries. The devs have mentioned that they are already working on it, so we expect it to drop in a patch in like a week or so.
In the meantime, we’d like to apologize for the inconvenience. : D
