Changing Keybindings in The Sims 4
This is the real issue with this game ! Why are there not a way to change my keybindings in this game.! Heard many say that it is needed, and i think THIS IS the only game in the world with lack ...

The Sims 4 is mainly controlled with the mouse with only a few keyboard commands so there is no real reason to have a feature to change keybindings and I have never seen a request for this before.
@jpkarlsen There are so many reasons to change keybinds. For ease of play to name a few. Or maybe your keyboard has a piece that is not working well for example. Something i would like to change is the speed setting, the pause would be so much better on spacebar or on number 1.

The numeric 0 is much bigger than the 1 and easier to hit making it the easiest to use for pause/un-pause so I can't really see why you would want the 1 key as pause instead of it meaning standard speed. What would you instead use for standard speed 0?
I don't think you understand that people can have vastly different keyboard layouts and mouse button functionality.
People can also have vastly different range of motion with their fingers due to things such as arthritis or other disabilities.
I honestly can't believe there is no option to change keybinds, it really is an issue that needs to be addressed as it is not only very inconvenient for many people but also a frustrating obstacle for people with disabilities.
@jpkarlsenI'm confused as to why you're catching such attitude about us wanting to change controls. This is obviously an issue to a lot of gamers. Why are you so adamant on disregarding people's preferences?
I know this is an old post but just started with SIms 4 and was looking up this topic of keybinds.
The answer here interested me, I don't know what type of keyboard has a numeric 0 that is bigger than all the other keys, and to clarify what I'm sure the person this was a response to was saying, 1 for pause makes so much more sense, then 2,3,4 for normal, fast and super fast.
0 is all the way at the end of the numbers so is just odd placement.
This is the way most games I have ever played have ever used the keyboard for speed. A few having space as pause instead of 0.
Minor quibbles overall, Sims does have a lot of fantastic options, just baffling to me what changing even basic keybinds is not one of them.I get the 0123 thing at least, 0 for no time is passing then 1 times, 2 times and 3 times speed 🙂 it does make sense from that perspective. even If I agree that we should be able to move controls however we want.
