I didn't know when did auto play changed to tab instead of "A", and I don't know what's the point of this, but it's confusing me a lot.
I use "q" and "s" to play osu, and it's unavoidable to hit tab when i play(my fourth finger would always hit tab when i stream), so i changed scoreboard toggling key into shift. But key bindings of test mode is not changeable. Is it possible to add feature of changing key bindings of test mode please? Or I really got no way to play maps, I really miss the old spin out.

Why do you play maps in test mode in the first place? You're not supposed to, test mode, as name suggests was created to TEST MAPS, not to play / practice them.
Also - Binding were changed from A to TAB for exactly same reason - because A could be used as binding for hitting circles, but no-one uses tab to hit them. Just because you accidentally hit them is not the reason for adding this feature. Just change your binding for hitting circles instead of editor.

it should be at least changeable in options IMO.

i thought it was A too at first but when i recently tried mapping i was kinda surprised it was changed to TAB.

You test maps by playing them.

Yeah, I explained it badly, but you know what I mean - you play maps in play mode, not in test mode, that's the point.

So why people hitting with A can get situation changed, but people with Q got discriminated?
I'm not leaving any unnecessary records atm, so I just play them in test mode. And also if that is wrong, I can't test map either, is that what it meant to be?
All I'm asking is if this could be changed, I guess it's not that hard to be done, and is reasonable.

A temporary solution for you would be to just nudge the keys you use to play a step to the right or down. There is nothing discriminatory about it, everybody else got it on tab as well and the only one at fault is you for not changing your own binds to something which wont be a bother.

Nonetheless, beyond your silly reason the suggestion is reasonable and I agree with that it should exist even though I don't mind having it set to tab.
