@lohiemer: thanks, fixed!
@djesse: done!

Nice, thanks!

As of latest patch:

Does anyone know the keybind for folding/unfolding your stock?

Alt + L

Ctrl + T - Switches between modes for AN/PEQ-15
Modes:

• Red Laser
• Green Laser
• Flashligh\Laser
• Flashlight Only

Mousewheel up and Mousewheel down adjusts your movement speed, in the same way you can adjust your hight by using c and Mousewheel. Which is good if your speed is set to low on both the caps lock options. (Which can happen if you open a door/container with capslock active.

Update on ctrl + T to adjust your lasersight, it doesn't turn your sight on. So if you have a setup with flashlights, and laser sights etc, you will first need to turn it on to see it work. (as it defaults to flashlight, this can give your position away at times).

Ctrl and Left mouse in inventory automatically moves something to the other side.

And while overing over an item Delete discards it quickly.

Double tap V for a quick melee attack while holding a firearm.

Thank you for taking the time to make this. After taking a clip with Snipping Tool, I printed it landscape 2-sided, and it's handy to keep around.

Awesome, thank you.

For anyone coming after Update 8 - To lower your helmet visor, press N like night vision.

How do you flip down flip up iron sights

N for Face shield Interaction

L is not used to check fire mode, it's to examine your weapon. ALT+B is used to check fire mode which will perform the animation and display the fire mode label in the lower right corner.

What is shortcut for check Missions during my gameplay. = press tab and near map there is objectives. they must add a shortcut for it. what a stupid game this one is.

L is not used to check fire mode, it's to examine your weapon. ALT+B is used to check fire mode which will perform the animation and display the fire mode label in the lower right corner.

You are technically correct (the best kind of correct), ALT+B is used to display the firing mode.
However, i was not stating that L is used to check fire mode, but to inspect the weapon. As you inspect the weapon you can look for the position of the fire selector and this way visually check the state.

F to pickup

Very helpful. Thanks for this!
