Interact — Configuration
There is no config file. Open /fwb_interact in game. Saving applies to every player straight away, without a restart, and updates keep your settings.
The menu has a live preview at the top of the Look, Keys, Target and default look / keys tabs.
Player tabs
Every player gets these (unless admins turn them off). They only change what that player sees, and are kept on their own PC. A grey Server tag means the player still uses the server's value; Reset goes back to it.
| Tab | Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Look | Shape | Circle | The dot's shape. The key badge takes the same shape |
| Look | Animation | None | None, pulse, spin, breathe, bounce |
| Look | Colour | White | The dot: white, the key colour, or a colour of your own |
| Look | Outline | On | A thin dark edge so the dot shows on bright walls and in the sky |
| Look | Dots on target spots | On | Show a dot where target spots are too |
| Look | Key colour | FwB teal | The key and the badge on cards |
| Look | Size on screen | 1.00 | Size of the dot and the prompt (0.5 to 2) |
| Look | Aim help | 0.16 | Higher: a spot counts as looked at even when it is not in the middle of the screen |
| Keys | Use key | E | E, G, H, F, X, Y or Z |
| Keys | Mouse wheel picks | On | Pick from a list with the mouse wheel |
| Keys | Arrow keys pick | On | Pick from a list with arrow up / down |
