Buttons and Remap

Remap is a special option that differs from PC DDNet. Unlike the normal keyboard, where every key on has its own name, such as ctrl, alt. Before binding, we need to give a name to the buttons, so that is why remapping is necessary.

On-screen keyboard, Remap physical keys, Two-finger screen gestures. The three options are related to remapping.

On-screen keyboard

This option can change settings about the buttons on screen.

Size of button images

Change the size of button images, won't do anything to the touchable range of a button.

On-screen keyboard transparency

Customize on-screen keyboard layout

It's highly recommended to edit button layout there. You can drag buttons directly, or tap to choose one button, then slide in an empty place to change it's shape. There will be words above to inform you what this button is.

If your texture is not sun, the texture shown in the customize interface will be Simple Theme.

Remap on-screen controls

There are 7 buttons and 2 joysticks in total. You can't remap Text input button and joysticks. It's highly recommended to turn off the Joystick1, or you can't jump while running, or start to run without jumping. To turn off it, tap into the option and follow the picture.

Turn off the Joystick1

Joystick 2 is the only way to hook. So don't turn it off. Touch ok to save settings and enter remapping, then you will see this.

Remap interface

Mapping a button to a key actually makes it behaves just like the key. For example, if you map button 1 to A, then button 1 will be completed the same as the A on the keyboard.

The name of the button being mapped is on the top. You don't need to care about its usage according to its name. Also, the button usually have a default mapping. We recommend to map buttons to A, D, SPACE, X, PAGEDOWN. That's because A,D,Space have already been bound by default, meaning you don't have to bind them again if you map the button to already bound keys.
