Secure the Supermarket Controls & Keybindings

Roblox defaults where confirmed — everything else marked not confirmed.

Last updated:

Controls in Secure the Supermarket build on standard Roblox inputs. STOP STEALING!!! has not published a full official keybinding sheet at the time this guide was written, so this page separates widely expected Roblox defaults from actions that are not confirmed for this specific experience. When in doubt, open Getting Started for shift flow, then test bindings in a private server or quiet public lobby.

PC / keyboard & mouse

These match default Roblox desktop controls unless the developer overrides them in-game:

ActionBindingStatus
Move forward / back / strafeW / S / A / DRoblox default
JumpSpaceRoblox default
Camera lookMouse movementRoblox default
Shift lock toggleLeft Shift or CtrlRoblox default (user setting)
Zoom cameraScroll wheelRoblox default
Roblox menuEscRoblox default

Interaction and security actions (not confirmed)

Receipt scanning, passing customers, detaining shoplifters, and equipping gear may use one or more of the following — not confirmed per action until documented in a live patch:

ActionLikely bindingStatus
Interact / scan / use toolLeft mouse button or ENot confirmed
Alternate interactFNot confirmed
SprintLeft Shift (if enabled)Not confirmed
Tool slot 1–9Number keys 1–9Not confirmed
Mobile-style on-screen buttons on PCN/ANot confirmed

If both E and click fail near the exit scanner, check for a highlighted prompt at the bottom of the screen — Roblox experiences often show context text like “Press E to interact.”

Mobile & tablet (touch)

Roblox mobile uses a virtual layout:

ActionControlStatus
MoveLeft thumbstickRoblox default
JumpJump button (right side)Roblox default
CameraSwipe / drag on right sideRoblox default
Interact / scanOn-screen action button when near objectNot confirmed label text

Receipt comparison may require tapping receipt lines or item icons — exact UI is not confirmed. Pinch-to-zoom follows Roblox camera settings.

Console (Xbox / PlayStation via Roblox)

Roblox console mappings generally follow:

ActionXboxPlayStationStatus
MoveLeft stickLeft stickRoblox default
CameraRight stickRight stickRoblox default
JumpACrossRoblox default
MenuMenu buttonOptionsRoblox default
InteractX or Y (context)Square or TriangleNot confirmed

Report any in-game glyph that differs from this table after updates on the Updates hub.

Receipt and exit lane UI (not confirmed)

Based on genre expectations and the official description (“scan customers at the exit” / “check receipts”):

  • Pass / approve — likely a green or check control after review (not confirmed)
  • Deny / detain — likely a red or stop control (not confirmed)
  • Receipt scroll — may use mouse wheel or swipe (not confirmed)

Practice slow approvals in Receipt Scanning before relying on muscle memory.

Gear and combat controls

When pursuing shoplifters, movement uses the same locomotion bindings. Melee or gadget tools may require:

  • Click / tap to activate (not confirmed)
  • Tool equip from hotbar (not confirmed slot keys)

See Catching Shoplifters for when to chase vs hold the exit. Upgraded gear may add hold-to-charge actions — not confirmed until listed in the Gear database.

Accessibility and settings

Roblox platform settings (not game-specific unless added):

  • Shift Lock — helps keyboard players keep orientation in tight aisles
  • Sensitivity — adjust camera speed for receipt UI at the lane
  • Graphics mode on mobile — lower settings can make touch targets easier to hit

Secure the Supermarket-specific remapping menus are not confirmed.

If controls feel wrong

  1. Open Roblox Settings → Keyboard / Controller and reset to defaults.
  2. Rejoin the experience — some bindings apply only after respawn.
  3. Compare with Getting Started — you may be standing outside interaction range.
  4. Check Updates for control changelog entries after patches.

We will update confirmed bindings when STOP STEALING!!! documents them officially or when reproducible in-game prompts are verified across platforms.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

What key interacts with the receipt scanner on PC?

Not confirmed. Try E or left click when a Roblox prompt appears near the exit lane. This guide labels unverified bindings clearly until official docs exist.

Does Secure the Supermarket support controller?

Yes via Roblox on supported consoles. Interact buttons follow Roblox context actions but exact glyphs for scanning are not confirmed.

Can I rebind keys in-game?

A dedicated rebind menu is not confirmed. Use Roblox platform settings for shift lock and sensitivity until devs add custom mapping.

Are mobile controls different from Secure the Airport?

Both use Roblox touch defaults, but supermarket receipt UI may differ. Test interact buttons each session after updates.

Why is sprint not working?

Sprint may be disabled or tied to a gear perk. Only Roblox default sprint is listed here and it is not confirmed for this game.
