List of Undocumented Keyboard/Mouse & Chat Commands

By Katelyn K.

Since Cube World doesn't exactly come with a manual (like literally),
I decided to pool some more or less obvious Keyboard, Mouse & Chat Commands,
so you can get the most out of this game.

Some Commands are especially useful for multiplayer,
so if you want to play with friends, make sure to check this guide out.

Introduction

Thought it might help some players, if I list a few commands which aren't explained in the game, since there's also no manual available.

Some of them are pretty obvious, but I wanted to comment on them.

Also some commands are listed in the options under "controls", I won't add these here, so make sure to check them out ingame.

If you know of some commands not listed here, feel free to post them in the replies,
so I can add them to the list.

So here it goes:

Mouse and Keyboard Commands

F1
Opens/Closes an overlay in which the mouse buttons for attacks are listed.

F2 - F6
Changes the size of various elements of the UI. Useful if you play on higher/lower resolutions.

Return/Enter
Lets you write in the chat for Multiplayer to enter chat commands, other people can't read your "chat"-messages.

Middle Mouse Button [on item in inventory]
Drops that item to the ground, useful in multiplayer to trade stuff. (thx @Youngst☆r)

Mousewheel up/down
Zoom in/out of the minimap and the main map. There are seven zoom steps. The two highest ones (1:4 & 1:8) are very useful to spot special locations (named locations, shrines, etc.) on the main map.

CTRL+Mousewheel up/down
Zooms to or away from your character. With this you can theoretically even play in 1st person, though there are clipping issues. I don't think 1st person is intended, but maybe you want to use it for screenshots or so.

Middle Mouse Button [on main map]
Places/removes a Map Marker. You can place as many as you like, there doesn't seem to be a limit. If you have trouble removing a marker due to a location name obscuring it, just zoom in pn it a little bit.

Hold Left Mouse Button [on main map]
Lets you change the viewing angle on the main map.

Hold Right Mouse Button [on main map]
Lets you drag the main map.

Double Right-Click [on main map]
Centers the view on the clicked spot on the main map. somewhat useful, if you want to "scroll" to a far distant place on the map.

Chat Commands

/namepet [name]
Lets you rename your pet..duh (thx @Bittamin)

/wave
Char makes a wave emote (thx @Perrito Tristecito)

/sit
Char sits down (thx @Perrito Tristecito)

/dance
Char makes a dance emote (thx @Perrito Tristecito)

/pet
Starts the pet animation (to pet your invisible pet friend, I guess, thx @Klies)
