Controls

These follow your account, not this device — change them here and your phone drives the same way. The same controls open over the game itself: press O, or the cog under the radar.

Handling

How it steers and how it aims

Turret sensitivity

gun swing per movement

100%

This one is your browser's business alone. The turret slews at its chassis's own rate whatever you do here, so it changes how the control feels and nothing about how the tank behaves.

Driving pad

The box you drive with on a touch screen

Put a thumb anywhere in the pad and drag. Where the thumb is says what the tank does — the top of the box is full ahead, the bottom full astern, and across it steers — so you never have to find a middle before you can pull away. Both sliders below are appearance only.

Control positions

Drag the on-screen controls where you want them

Opens the game screen with every on-screen control framed — the driving pad, the fire button, the weapons, the modules, the centre-gun button, the armour readout and the settings cog. Drag each one where your thumbs want it and press Lock in place. The layout is saved to your account, so it is the same on every device you sign in on, scaled to fit the screen.

Move controls

Direction

Which way is which

Invert steering Left turns right. Applies to the pad and the keys alike. Invert aim — vertical Push up to lower the gun — the flight-stick convention. Invert aim — horizontal Move right to swing the gun left. Separate from the vertical, so you can have either, both or neither.

Keys

Tap a key to drop it, + to add one

An action with no keys at all is allowed — that is how you say you drive with the on-screen pad and want the keyboard out of it. Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Tab, Esc and Enter cannot be bound. Three keys per action is the limit.
