Controls

Warning

This page is being migrated to the Minicraft Wiki on wiki.gg, so no further updates to the information are made here. If the migration is completed, this page will be deleted.

So, I thought I would list the controls more or less concisely here, because there are some that aren't all that clear. Here's all of them:

• UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT - pretty self-explanatory; these determine which keys make the player move around.

• SELECT (Default key: "ENTER") - used for menus before starting the game, like the title screen, and also for the pause menu, to select the current option.

• EXIT (Default key: "ESCAPE") - Exits the menu, and goes back to the previous one.

• ATTACK (Default key: "C|SPACE") - This basically uses the currently held item, which could be a sword or a tile, or some furniture. Maybe it should be called "USEITEM", I don't know. This also selects the item in your inventory.

• MENU (Default key: "X|ENTER") - used to open menus (such as your crafting menu) or otherwise interact with objects, besides hitting them or using your held item, such as getting in bed.

• CRAFT (Default key: "Z") - open/close personal crafting window.

• PICKUP (Default key: "V") - pickup torches / furniture; this replaces the power glove, if you played the old version.

• DROP-ONE (Default key: "Q") - drops the item in your hand, or selected in your inventory, by ones; it won't drop an entire stack. This also will move single items to and from a chest.

• DROP-STACK (Default key: "SHIFT-Q") - drops the item in your hand, or selected in your inventory, entirely; even if it's a stack.

• PAUSE (Default key: "ESCAPE") - pause the game.

• SETHOME (Default key: "SHIFT-H") - set your home. This is a spot that you can teleport to with the HOME key at any point, as long as you are on the surface.

• HOME (Default key: "H") - go to set home. Note: on Hardcore mode, there is a penalty for using this.

• POTIONEFFECTS (Default key: "P") - toggle potion effect display

• INFO (Default key: "SHIFT-I") - open player stats display

• QUICKSAVE (Default key: "R") - shortcut key to save the world (can also be done from pause menu)
