Describe the bug

I had a keymap i had imported that i was using with WW. When i started to edit the keymap i noticed that pressing a key would click a point on the screen where there was no key mapped to that section. I've tried uninstalling the game, deleting all data, installed a different nightly build, reset the keymap from the settings, yet still even with no keymap imported some of the old keymaps are lingering. I can't use new keymaps because pressing the keys will trigger the same old phantom spots.
I've used nightly builds 623 and 752 and its doing the same thing on both. The only thing i haven't done is uninstalled playcover completely by dragging it to the trashcan

Please help

WuWa natively processes some keys, including left mouse button for attack, M for map and J for task, and more. You must be triggering an attack by clicking left mouse button.

I'm not even using the mouse. Its just that a couple of keys that i had mapped are somehow 'stuck' in the same part of the screen. I had assigned Q for the echo ability, then i moved it to the Ultimate position, but hitting Q still tiggers the echo. Even if theres no mapping there. Its like PlayCover itself has the keymap for a couple keys somewhere in its memory and i'm trying to figure out how to erase the keymap completely

I think the "old keymap" you describe is just the native keyboard support of the game. The game will soon release a Mac port and it would fully support keyboard by then.

Or you can try disable keymap in settings, or remove playtools completely. That would disable the keymapping function of playcover.

Hello, I have exactly the same problem here. Did you find a solution to assign Q for another key without tiggers the echo skill? Thank you

Unfortunately no :(
Makes it almost impossible to play. Waiting to see if the next version of WuWa fixes it. Lets see

Wuthering Waves has in-built partial keyboard and mouse support separate to PlayCover. This in-game mapping has been done by Kuro Games themselves and can't be changed(as of game ver 1.1)
