Controls
Controls covers how to move, look around and use the keyboard in Kintara. Every key below can be changed in Settings → Key Bindings unless it says otherwise.
Movement
Click the ground to walk there. Click a tree, rock, fishing spot, NPC or monster to interact with it — the action depends on the item selected on your hotbar.
Camera
- Zoom — scroll the mouse wheel, or pinch with two fingers on a phone or tablet.
- Move the view — hold the left mouse button and drag. Settings → Key Bindings → Camera Pan switches this to the right mouse button.
- Center Camera — press Y (or use the switch in Settings → Options → Graphics) to keep your character in the middle of the screen while you walk. With it off, the view stays where you leave it.
- Third-person camera (Kintara Club members) — press V (or use the switch in Settings → Options → Graphics) to view the world from behind your character instead of from above. Drag to look around and scroll to move the camera closer or further. Press V again to return to the overhead view. V cannot be rebound yet.
- Photo mode (Kintara Club members) — press P (or type
/photo) to hide the screen and fly the camera freely: WASD to move, R and F for up and down, Shift to go faster, drag to look and scroll to zoom. Save picture keeps the shot; P or Esc takes you back. P cannot be rebound yet.
