How to bind jump to scroll wheel in CS2
There is an incredible easy way to bind jump to your scroll wheel in CS2. The menus are now far more intuitive than they have been previously. All you need to do is open up the CS2 settings and head over to the tab that reads "Keyboard / Mouse".
In this tab, there is a section for Movement Keys. These movement keys are laid out with the default keys, like WASD for forward, backward, etc. To change your bind for jump, click on the box that says spacebar and then with your next action, use the button you wish to use instead.
That can be any button you wish, including up or down on your scroll wheel, or even clicking it in for the Mouse3 bind.
