Now the controllers can toggle autoh harvest. Will a keyboard key do this as well? Having to resort to the E plus tab exploit to do this? Could be. Absolutely. There is definitely I like I love the fact I love the fact that there are, I was going to say console, but I mean yeah controller gameplay, features that feel good enough that PC players ask for them because I think that hammers home the point well that controllers are absolutely not an afterthought for satisfactory. It is something we add very much with the intent of, you know, making it feel smooth, making it feel fun, making it feel proper. Um, not making it feel like inferior depending on what your definition of play is, like you have to get through the game as fast as possible and be as optimal and be as, you know, borderline speedrun as possible. Yes, probably KBM is more optimal than controllers. Um but the fact that controllers are a very viable way to play even like with us implementing all new features for them to feel that good to play with, that good so that people again on the PC and ask for them or sorry the KVM and ask for them I think is testament very good testament to how nice controllers are dealt with so far in 1.1. So, yeah, but E tab, can you just hold E anyway? Cuz like the the nice thing about the controller thing if you are not in the loop is that if you hold the square button on a PS5 controller, Dual Sense or the I believe it is X I always trip up between Nintendo and Xbox, but I believe on Xbox it is the Don't I have a controller right here? I only have the Dual Sense on my desk right now. Uh, I think Hannah took the Xbox One. Uh, it's the X button on the Xbox controller. The left the left symbol button. If you hold that for like two seconds in front of foliage, you trigger auto harvest, which makes which means that you can just run through foliage and pick it up. Pressing or holding nothing, like nothing. You just flick your stick and run through it and it just keeps picking and picking forever until you toggle it back off again. Um, so just having that like if you hold E for two seconds and then let go of E and then just literally just WSD and you can still auto pick up I think is the feature being asked for here. Holding E is close enough. Yeah, it does lock your hand to the keyboard like entire or to like the E key entirely or your finger at least. Um, but it's point being you shouldn't have to like exploit to do that. You can get something similar enough by holding it down. Um, can auto harvest keyboard too? Really? Can you paper? Wait. N-
