Really wanted to give this game a try. Maybe it differs from all those clones out there.
Start client - Options - Controls - "Remap Failed: "e" is alredy bound to non-remappable command!".
And that was it. Unless there is some way around it, like manually setting controls in some config file(which i didnt find), il pass, at least till this thing is fixed.
Not every1 are using wasd for movement and making those keys fixed is unacceptable. I dont intend to change the way i use controls because of this game. Already had several games dropped due to same issue - controls are either unremappable or remapping dosnt work.

EDIT: my bad, I am using different setup (arrow keys) from you. I suggest re-pogram E outside game by macro language (Autohotkey/AutoIT3). You can make PC seeing some other key being pressed when you press E. I just hope such macro would not bother devs.
If I get response it's ok, I can post script here that would work. Would be inconvenient to use, since if you wanted to chat ingame, you would need to pause it each time.

lol I have never once used my keys to move. I use f4 to run and my mouse to move.
it is strange that e is hard coded when the keys around it aren't.

You can use Wasd or Arrows for movement.
The Key E locks reserved for Jump, like few
others. But for sure there are enough unre-
served Key left for change the Movement.

You could send a Support Ticket, maybe the
Dev will change the Game after your wishes.

I'm the same as Dirmagnos, though for me it's not a deal-breaker if I can't remap. I typically use the E key for walking forward and was annoyed when I found that it can't be changed in AWS (nor can C and a few others) while just about every other key can be changed. I reported it as a bug many many moons ago because this is very different from AWA which let me remap every single key that the game recognized.
At the same time I play more like Dale does - except that I've remapped auto-run to the A key for easier reach and RSDF for standard movement - and I rarely find myself pressing the E key at all. It does get under my skin a bit when I just want to walk forward a short distance and end up jumping instead and I have to remember to press R, but again, it's rare.
Still, I really hope they fix this issue. It doesn't make much sense to me that some (apparently random) keys are locked into certain functions while the rest aren't. The locked keys don't match any sort of pattern either, which reinforces my thinking that it's a bug to be fixed.
