Change key commands

I really hate the current key command layout. I know you can modify some of the keys in the settings, but most of the key settings are hidden. I wonder if there is anyway I can change them? Any file that I can manually modify? I know a bit of coding so I don't mind more complex stuff.
 
I think that you should go and have a look in "options" file, in the main folder.
Just be sure to back it up just in case. ;)

Good luck! :cheers
 
PROGRAM\Controls\BuildDefaultControls.h should allow you much more freedom to set things up the way you want.
After changing, "Reset Controls to Default" in the game's Options menu.
 
I always had a bit of trouble changing set sails and strike sails to the arrow keys. It works when I change them in CONTROLS\DefaultControls then like @Pieter Boelen says, reset the controls in the control menu of the game, and then change the controls I can and want to in the menu (because those have just been reset obviously).

Others like going up and down the answers in the dialogue window, I can just change in the file and then they apply to the game without the reset.
 
I saw 2 files in PROGRAM\Controls\
1. controls (C Source)
2. DefaultControls (C header)
I don't see BuildDefaultControls.
