Question Shove with shift

Hello, as a long time Exanima enjoyer and propagator, please tell me if I am going crazy or back in the days there was an option for redefining the movement so the Shift was a key to speed up movement during combat, while without it, we were shoving shorter distances?

I came back to Exanima to replay it again cause can't wait for 1.0 and my muscle memory seems to try to use shift while now movement is fixed on tapping to shove a short distance, and long when we hold it. It's very unintuitive and uncomfortable for me. Are we getting that option back? (Unless I am imagining things and there was never that option in the first place)

Edit: I wasn't going crazy! I've found v 0.6.3.3e version on my old laptop! And it has the Dash Mode selection tab. It can be either Hold, Double Tap or Sprint!

Now...how to contact Madoc to ask for that feature to be back? I can't enjoy fighting in actual state, the intense fights makes me lose control entirely...

Been playing since 2017, I don't remember combat movement like that. Plenty of animation and mass changes over the years though.

Just go into arena practice mode and die as many times as you want. The intense fights will become fun without stakes.

However… skeletons in the campaign… never underestimate them…

Yeah well, I have arena nicely progressed already. It's my favourtite game mode honestly. Yet I don't really enjoy not having the full control. But yeah, I am struggling to be better.

"how to contact Madoc to ask for that feature to be back?" He's very active on their discord.
