Controls Guide
By Just a Spoon
I am fully aware that there is a controls menu showing all of the controls for the game Wooden Battle Simulator. But I found that the controls are a bit hard to get used to. In this guide I will show you how the controls work, what buttons are used even though they are in the game, and some suggections to the creator to what he or she should update regarding the controls.

Controls and buttons
Intro:
As you may already know there is a menu for buttons, if you don't know how to access this menu for some reason this is how below.

Open Menu:
First go into Sandbox,Wave,Mission,or the Challenge option. Once you are inside one of them open up the drop down menu by pressing the escape button on your keyboard. Once you have done that you will see the menu, click on controls. There you will find all of the corresponding buttons you will need to press to use the specified control.
The control menu was very useful for me because it helped me find out how to move the camera.

Controls:
Move Camera ====== W,A,S,D
Zoom in ====== Scroll the Scroll Wheel
Rotate Camera ====== Press the Scroll Wheel
Rotate Unit ====== Q,E
Sell Unit ====== Delete
Verticly Move Block ====== Left Shift,Left Control
Toggle Block Orientation ====== Z
Toggle Block Placing Guide ====== G

Problems you may have
Intro
There are some problems with the controls that you may be having and you need help with! I would really like these problems to be fixed or changed and In my opinion are a little difficult to get used to and figure out.

Rotating the Camera
Probably the biggest problem and first problem I came accross was how I Rotate the Camera. I tried some buttons that most games i've played in the passed and they all didn't work. I looked for the controls menu and found it successfully and opened it. I then saw that it wanted me to use the scroll wheel button to Rotate the Camera, not zoom in with the camera! I know it's not the biggest problem ever but I don't know about you but I hardly ever have to use the pressing feature on the Scroll Wheel. I also think that some mice don't even have the feature!

Deleteing Units or Blocks
Not a huge problem but I would like to discuss it. When I was playing the game for the first time I wanted to know how to get rid of units without reseting the whole board so I went over to the controls menu. I noticed that it said to press delete but it didn't work. I then found out that you not only need to press the unit or block you want to delete first but you ALSO need to press the actual delete button that is over the arrow keys, not the backspace button which I presumed was what the creator meant! I honestly think that the delete button is too far away from my confort zone and the fact that I have to press on the units or blocks really slows it down!

Creator Updates?
Intro
Here are some updates I hope the creator can atleast think about!

Right Click NOT Scroll Wheel
I think using the scroll wheel is too hard to get used to as the Camera Rotator. I would suggest changing the button to the Right Mouse Button. Pretty much any other button is too hard and too annoying to get used to.

Delete Button
I suggest changing the delete key for getting rid of units to the backspace key. It's much closer to the other keys that you use and is used more in typing so it's much easier to get used to if you even need to. Lastly about deleting the units I honestly think the creator should change having to click on the units to delete them. Deleting the units without clicking on them would be much much easier.

WHICH IS THE DELETE BUTTON

so this is a long story but ill try to make it short. So, once i started playing i accidentally pressed a button that made my game screen smaller and it wont let me click the maximize button at the top right to the left of the "X" and i still haven't figured out how to make it back into full screen. And it would help me out SO so much if you could figure out how to do that. and just message me when you find out. thanks.

While it is undeniably true, realistically how many mouse without a wheel a still around?

And if surprisingly the answer would be pretty enough, devs should consider it?

I don't think so, but anyway for anyone who has similar problem the software X mouse button might be usefull.

Right mouse button would be better for people with a non clickable scroll wheel
