Hi!

How can I rotate things?

You'll need to press the middle mouse button - commonly known as the "scroll wheel" button.

If you are on a laptop you'll need to find a program that can fake the key when you press something else. :)

pressing both mouse buttons "ON A LAPTOP" at the same time often simulates a middle-click.

Ha, Sorry, light humor never come across on screen.

Have you tried Ctrl + Left Click? It works for things like Browser tabs instead of a middle mouse click.
Other than that there must be a program out there which simulates a middle mouse click, that has to be a faily common problem with the amount of programs/games that use it? Have you tried googling it?

I had this problem on my laptop, until it is fixed i have downloaded a small piece of software called mousemu which simulates the middle mouse button using the keypad. Hope this helps someone

The real root question is: "When are we getting rebindable keys or an editable config file?"

Is a free keyboard layout really such an important thing in the early development process of the game? I don't think so. It would a nice to have though.
