Controls
Most keyboard and controls can be changed in the “Change Keys” menu.
The controls marked with an asterisk can't be changed in this menu, you have to edit minetest.conf for this. The controls marked with two asterisks are fixed and can't be changed at all.

- W: Move forwards
- A: Move to the left
- D: Move to the right
- S: Move backwards
- J: Toggle fast mode (requires “fast” privilege)
- K: Toggle fly mode (requires “fly” privilege)
- H: Toggle noclip mode, only works if fly mode is also on (requires “noclip” privilege)
