With some exceptions, keyboard controls can be rebound in settings. There is no customization available for controllers.
- Pressing Space while driving a Truck or Explorer will do a drift.
- Holding down V allows to select what resource will the Resource Scanner scan for.
- The map is only accessible after it has been researched in the Quartz Research in M.A.M..
- Crouching while running will do a slide.
- Crouching before jump will do a higher jump.
- Approach a resource node and press E to start manual mining. To do AFK manual mining, open inventory Tab ↹ while the manual mining key is held down.
- For Nobelisks, holding down
allows it to be thrown further. - Photo Mode can be used as binoculars by scrolling to zoom.
- Pressing or holding Ctrl while dismantling will activate Mass Dismantle mode, where up to 50 buildings at once can be marked to be deconstructed simultaneously.
- Pressing Left Ctrl while building will align the building in a straight line.
- Pressing
while in build mode or dismantle mode while facing a building will copy the blueprint of aimed building. - All building shortcuts are only for buildings and vehicles in the build menu.
- These can be assinged by hovering over a building in the build menu and pressing the keybind (this will assign the building only to the active hotbar).
- These might not work for some keyboard layouts. This can be fixed easily by manually rebinding each key.
- In the Esc menu, the respawn option is available, which will instantly kill the player.
Combination functions:

- If interacting with vehicle inventory with a valid fuel item and if a fuel slot is present, the fuel slot will be prioritized, which means items will be transferred only to the fuel slot (no longer true as of Patch 0.3.4.7).
