With default controls Ping, Secondary Attack and Deconstruct don't work. I remapped Secondary Attack and Deconstruct to a side button. My middle mouse however works in other games and programs.

I also noticed it calls my side button Mouse 3, and the default name for middle button in the game is Mouse-3 with the dash. Probably not an issue.

If the Ping command was configurable that would help for people who's middle button won't work with this game.

Edit: I do think it's probably something weird with my mouse, but can't figure out why it works in many other programs. But not some.

Edit 2: Actually all this post except having ping reconfigurable can be ignored... Sorry. It seems my middle mouse button has finally completely died. :(


I've noticed and experienced all of this. I also had to remap the controls to use those functions. My side mouse button also works in this and other games. I also noticed and thought the slot for mouse 3 being named that was odd. Didn't think anything of it though. I just remapped that to the side mouse button. Even when clicking the side mouse button, with the map open, no ping.

@AllOutWar76 Of course I also tried the middle mouse button with the map open.

Similar to @Dialtone here I think my middle mouse button is either almost dead or is dead. If and when I update my hardware, I'll update ya'll with the result.

Ty for the feedback. Loving the game so far. Just found Odin watching me the other night, creepy old man.

I've seen a ping from a friend with the box for shared location off. I've also seen it with it on. Pretty sure its my mouse.
