Issue Description:
Setting the “Slide” keybind does nothing. It does not activate a slide when pressed while sprinting. The “Crouch” binding continues to perform the slide functionality regardless of whether “Slide” is bound to another key.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Set the “Slide” keybinding to a key that is not in use by any other binding.
- Load into the free tutorial area or any normal playable mission.
- Attempt to sprint and then slide using the “Slide” keybinding. You should observe that nothing happens.
- Attempt to sprint and slide using the “Crouch” binding. You should observe the player character sliding as expected under the default behavior, but not the expected behavior with a “Slide” keybinding set.

Upload Supporting Evidence:
Available upon request. Should be trivial to re-create locally on any existing installation and character.
[PC] Upload Console Log & darktide_launcher.log:
Available upon request but again, this is trivial to re-create locally and there’s nothing in the launcher log file pertaining to triggering the issue in game.
NOTE: I’ve searched other bug reports, feature requests and the KB. I see some asking for separate Slide/Crouch functionality and some indicating that “Crouch” doesn’t perform the slide when bound to certain keys but none of these are the issue described above. I feel like this should be a dupe given how long the playerbase has known about it but I just couldn’t find it if it exists. ~Cheers
