Keybindings[]
Keybindings let you set hotkeys for controls and Admin Commands.
- Column 1: Specified key or keys, separated by -.
- Column 2: Targeted action or command.
Insert is permanently bound to the development console and cannot be used for other commands.[17]
Not all keybinds can be edited from the UI. Instead the Input.ini file (found in the Steam folder Steam\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor) can be edited by hand in any text editor.
Improved Quality of Life commands[]
Improved Quality of Life commands are messages in the top right corner of the screen, which flash every once in a while. They may be used as reminders for certain tasks.[18]
Notes[]
- The chat scrolls all the way back when you respawn. It works normally when you manually scroll it.
- Classes or combos as in Age of Conan are not planned. Combat is based on skill and reaction.[19][20]
- The Elder Scrolls, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic and other MMORPGs are all influences for Conan Exiles's combat.[19][20]
Issues[]
- When getting up from a chair while in Vanity Camera mode, the camera angle will be stuck in free look and your character will be stuck on permanent Strafe.[21]
- When in the UI, hitting ESC Escape makes you unable to move, nor does the Menu show.
- Workaround: restarting the game.[22]
