PC keyboard, mobile touch, and console gamepad bindings for StarX Inc's Roblox anime battler.

Controls

Comfort with controls determines whether your first Osop army dock session feels smooth or chaotic. Anime Capture on Roblox ships on PC, mobile, and console clients through the standard Roblox app — StarX Inc. layers auto-combat, manual movement, capture prompts, and menu shortcuts on top of Roblox’s base input. This reference lists default bindings by platform, explains capture and potion actions, and points to guides where mechanics matter more than keys: Getting Started, How to Capture Units, and Worlds & Progression.

Roblox allows rebinding on some platforms; values below reflect launch defaults in August 2026. After patches, verify changes on Updates.

PC controls (keyboard and mouse)

PC remains the most precise platform for capture timing at the docks.

ActionDefault binding
MoveW A S D
CameraMouse movement
Basic attackAuto-enabled; click or Left Mouse Button for manual swings if toggled
Ability 1–4Q E R F (when unlocked)
Jump / dodgeSpace
Interact / NPCE or F near prompts
Capture confirmF or on-screen click when prompt appears
Open menuM or Esc
Codes / settings panelClick left-side UI icons
Potion quick slot15 if hotbar visible
Sprint (if enabled)Left Shift

PC tips:

  • Hold right mouse button to free-look without reversing movement — useful when kiting Osop packs along narrow piers.
  • Bind capture confirm to a key you can hit instantly; prompts expire quickly (How to Capture Units).
  • Lower mouse sensitivity in Roblox settings if camera whip causes missed abilities during dock loops.
  • Keep chat collapsed in busy public servers to avoid mis-clicks on UI overlays.

Mobile controls (touch)

Roblox mobile uses virtual sticks and context buttons. Anime Capture adds combat and capture overlays on the right thumb zone.

ActionDefault control
MoveLeft virtual joystick
CameraSwipe right side of screen
AttackAuto-attack; tap enemy for focus if enabled
AbilitiesSkill buttons stacked bottom-right
JumpDedicated jump icon
Interact / captureContext button appears near thumb when in range
MenuHamburger or backpack icon (top or left rail)
CodesLeft-side gift/menu icons
PotionsTap potion bar icons; confirm use in popup

Mobile tips:

  • Increase UI scale in Roblox settings if capture buttons feel too small during timed prompts.
  • Play in landscape — portrait mode cramps ability clusters.
  • Pre-open the potion bar before rare hunts; closing menus mid-fight loses capture windows.
  • Mobile latency hurts short timers — farm on stable Wi-Fi before spending Luck Potions from Codes.

Console controls (gamepad)

Xbox-style layouts are standard through Roblox console; PlayStation maps equivalently.

ActionXbox layout
MoveLeft stick
CameraRight stick
AttackRT (auto) / X manual if enabled
AbilitiesY B RB LB as unlocked
JumpA
Interact / captureX or Y when prompt shows
MenuMenu button
Potion wheelD-pad or LB + face buttons if wheel enabled

Console tips:

  • Use snap camera toggles in Roblox if available — right-stick precision helps dock pier navigation.
  • Capture prompts compete with ability buttons — prioritize confirm over flashy skills when timer appears.
  • Console players benefit from co-op at world gates (Worlds & Progression) where keyboard/mouse players sometimes carry DPS.

Universal actions across platforms

Some interactions behave identically regardless of device:

Codes redemption — Open the gift or ticket icon, tap the text field, paste case-sensitive strings from Codes (RELEASE, FixesAndImprovements, etc.), confirm redeem.

Equipping units — Open Collection from menu, select a captured fighter, assign to team slot; equipped units appear behind your avatar in combat.

Zone travel — Interact with gate NPCs or portals when team power requirements are met.

Co-op — Roblox proximity voice/text is separate from game controls; Anime Capture combat remains real-time alongside other players on public servers.

Capture-specific control timing

Capture is the highest-skill input check early game:

  1. Damage enemy into threshold without over-killing.
  2. Watch for UI prompt at screen center or above enemy.
  3. Confirm within the timer using platform interact binding.
  4. If nothing happens, verify you are not stunned, dead, or in menu pause.

Practice on common Osop soldiers before using Luck Potions — control mistakes waste potions faster than bad RNG. Full mechanics: How to Capture Units.

MenuTypical path
Units / CollectionMain menu → Units
ShopMain menu → Shop or vendor NPC at docks
QuestsQuest tracker icon or NPC boards
SettingsGear icon; graphics affect mobile readability
CodesLeft rail gift icon

StarX Inc. may relocate icons in UI patches — Discord announcements (Official Links) note major layout changes when no Trello exists.

Accessibility and Roblox settings

Outside Anime Capture-specific binds, Roblox global settings help:

  • Reduce graphics quality on low-end mobile for stable framerate during dock swarm fights
  • Toggle shift lock on PC for cleaner forward kiting
  • Enable auto-jump disable if accidental pier falls waste time
  • Adjust music/SFX separately so ability audio cues remain audible

Controls checklist for new players

Before leaving Getting Started:

  • Move and camera feel natural on your device
  • You can open Codes and redeem THANKS4K or similar
  • You confirmed a capture prompt at least once
  • You equipped a unit from Collection
  • You used a potion from inventory intentionally

Platform mastery is cheap progression. Ten minutes in the Osop docks adjusting sensitivity and menu muscle memory saves more time than another half-hearted capture attempt on the wrong binding.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

What key confirms capture on PC in Anime Capture?

Typically F or the on-screen prompt button when the capture timer appears. Confirm quickly — windows are short. See How to Capture Units for the full loop.

How do mobile players capture units?

A context button appears near your thumb when an enemy enters capture range. Tap it before the timer expires; use landscape mode for larger buttons.

Does Anime Capture support controller on Roblox?

Yes. Xbox and PlayStation layouts use sticks for move/camera and face buttons for interact, abilities, and capture prompts when they appear.

Where is the Codes button?

Usually on the left-side UI as a gift or ticket icon. Open it, paste case-sensitive codes from the Codes page, and tap Redeem.

Can I rebind keys in Anime Capture?

Roblox allows some platform-level rebinding, but in-game defaults are fixed at launch. Check Updates after patches for official control changes.

Which guide should I read with this page?

Getting Started for first-session flow, then How to Capture Units for prompt timing. Currency & Potions covers potion hotkeys during farms.
