This document contains a list of the default controls for Dwarf Fortress as of version v0.27.169.32a. Controls may be configured manually through the use of the Esc menu or by editing the file interface.txt, but this is not recommended for novice players.
Controls are usually listed on the bottom of the window or next to the respective option when you have opened a menu.
Arrows are shown on the edges of the screen if more options are available beyond the screen. Use the Interface keys to scroll through the list of options.
For purposes of the game, note that any key designated in uppercase means to hold Shift while tapping that key. For instance, V means to press Shift+v.
Interface
- + - Next option / Increase quantity

- * - Next page
- / - Previous page
- ↑ - Next option
- ↓ - Previous option
- ← - Next column
- → - Previous column
- PgUp - Next page/screen

When it is possible to scroll the map while a menu is open, the arrow keys cannot be used to select menu options; instead, the +, -, *, and / keys are repurposed to allow selection from menus.
