Keyboard shortcuts

Every key the game uses, grouped by what you are doing. Generated from the game itself.

This page is generated from the game's own key registry, so it is always current. In the game, press ? or H for the in-game list.

Time keys (Space, +, -, ., ,) work in every mode. The number keys never conflict with them, because they only act while a drawer or terrain tool is open.
