The controls menu with the default options

This page documents the controls available while playing Redguard and their default settings.

Controls MenuEdit

You can re-map the controls listed in the controls menu to other keys to suit your preferences.

Control Default Notes
Forward Kbd Up Run or walk forward. Also used to navigate menus.
Back Kbd Down Walk backward. Also used to navigate menus.
Left Kbd Left Turn left. Also used to navigate menus.
Right Kbd Right Turn right. Also used to navigate menus.
Use Ctrl Activate an object in the world, use an item, or attack if your weapon is drawn.
View Alt While held, use the keys assigned for movement to rotate the camera around Cyrus. If your weapon is drawn, defend against attacks.
Jump Space Jump in the air or climb on an object. Cyrus performs a standing jump if you are standing still, strafing left or right, or moving backward in walk mode. He performs a short jump in the direction of movement if walking forward or backward. Running forward makes him perform a long jump.
Walk L Shift While held, Cyrus will walk forward instead of run and stops at the edge of ledges instead of falling off. Unlike the Walk Mode toggle, this also changes the behavior of Left and Right to strafe rather than turn. In dialogue, this skips lines.
Items I Open or close the inventory.
Map M Show or hide the island map if you have one.
Log L Open or close the log. Only works if there are entries in it.
Sword S Make your sabre the current item if it's not already and sheathes or unsheathes it.
Health H Drink a health restoring item if you do not have 100 health. In order of priority, they are: pure water and aloe mix (15), health potion (15), and glass bottle with pure water (5).
Next Period Make the next item in your inventory the current item.
Prev Comma Make the previous item in your inventory the current item.
