{{Hatnote|See [[Keyboard controls]] for a list of possible shortcuts.}}
The Shortcuts panel lets you change or assign keystrokes to various game actions. An action can have only one keystroke assigned to it. Some actions have default keystrokes assigned, but many do not. In the example shown below the "Copy" action has a keystroke shortcut of {{button|CTRL}} + {{button|C}}, while the "Exit Station" action has "(none)".

There are too many shortcuts to list here - a good way to review them is to page through the subpanels. Note that a few shortcuts have a tiny "lock" icon, indicating that they cannot be changed.

===Editing Shortcuts===
To change a shortcut keystroke, right-click on the current keystroke. A menu will let you choose between "edit" and "clear". Selecting "clear" will reset the keystroke for that action to "(none)". Selecting "edit" will ask you to type a key. Whatever you type will immediately become the new key for the shortcut. You will be warned if you are about to erase a prior key setting.
