Controls you need before your first game
CheckMovement, combat, eating, and attitude are all handled by a small set of keys and mouse clicks. Swimming controls are separate from land movement, so make sure you know Q and E before heading near water.
- Click to land an AOE attack on nearby targets
- Left-click on food or water to eat or drink
- Press E to swim up and Q to swim down
- Hold Left Shift while moving to sprint
- Press T to sniff, R for aggressive, G for neutral, C for passive
