= PC Controls =

Before jumping into the game, you'll need to familiarize yourself with the basic controls including the ability to move your character and interact with your environment. You can access these key assignments by visiting the ''Controls'' section of the ''[[Settings|Configuration]]'' menu, which you can from the in-game menu using the {{Key|Esc}} key or from the game's main menu. Additional controls can be accessed via the drop-down menu at the top of the key assignment screen. You can reconfigure the controls based on your own personal preferences. The tables below show the default key assignments for the game.

(Console players using a mouse and keyboard cannot change any keybindings at this time)

Zombies are now attracted to the sound of a survivor's voice.
* Whispering has a voice range of 7 meters.
* Default has a voice range of 25 meters.
* Yelling has a voice range of 45 meters.
*The further a survivor/infected are from the source, the quieter it will be.

=== Additional Gestures ===
These gestures are not bound to any key by default and must be assigned by the user (typically in place of an existing gesture assignment). In Experimental, new gestures have been rebound to existing keys, while some are still unavailable by conventional means. 


Additionally, as far as 1.12 vanilla, you can also hold the period, or > key to open the emote menu.
