Accessibility options - Githubissues

copygirl commented 5 years ago

I have a friend who has tendonitis, which makes it difficult for her to hold down too many keys and mouse buttons for a longer time, especially if precision is required. Therefore I would like to suggest some possible client side options that players could enable to make it easier to play if they're having problems.

[ ] Simplified voxel crafting: Allows for voxel crafting to be done automatically, similar to copying a previous layer in clay crafting, except only adding / removing the correct voxels. Speed could be adjusted to make it "balanced", if that is a concern.
[ ] Tap for action: Press once to do a timed action: Breaking a block, using the quern, charging a bow.
[ ] Tap to toggle: Press to toggle an action, instead of requiring it to be held constantly: Sprinting, sneaking, voxel crafting (until crafting is done / mouse is moved away), breaking blocks continuously.

If anyone has other concerns / suggestions, please comment here and I'll add them to the list.

I just realized this may be made more straight-forward with this "action system" I've been thinking of.

In addition to accessibility when it comes to input, we might also want to consider people who have visual or auditory problems with the game. The ideal solution would be the ability to disable or turn down certain weather effects and sounds on the client, including the various effects inside the Rust world.

The player Apache has taken some time to explain his concerns in video.

Colorblindness is also a thing to consider: #837
