Summary0004346: Navigate Strategy/Settlement Map With WASD Keys
DescriptionIt would be really awesome if you could use the WASD keys to navigate the strategy and settlement maps. It feels somewhat awkward/unnecessary to have to take your hands off the WASD keys and use the mouse to scroll through the map.

I think adding this would be a nice addition in the future.

I've linked 0003892, which has a different suggestion for the use of WASD in the strategic game.

Personally, I'd prefer to use WASD to scroll the map, but there's something a little inelegant in having WASD equivalent to arrow keys in some places (notably the main part of the game) and not in others.

I think just making fast-scroll (currently available by holding CTRL while scrolling) be the default would reduce the need to scroll with the keyboard and make it more natural for WASD to select NPCs or building instead.

Changed the post to title/content to use "WASD" keys instead of "AWSD" keys. It's nearly 5 am and insomnia is in full effect. =P
