What is "strafe"?
As explained in the help about the 3D view The W, S, A and D keys produce the same effect in the 3D view as up, down, left and right arrow keys.

Strafe means: you press a or d and instead of turning left or right, the character moves/steps left or right while keeping the orientation. You can make it an optional feature.

I think this feature is still relevant.
The goal here would be to reproduce what the gaming industry does.
This means holding the mouse for free look + rotation and WASD to move visitor foward/back/strafe left/strafe right.
Holding Alt while moving mouse + arrows is next to impossible.
Most of users nowadays have the muscle memory of gaming, so it would mean a smaller learning curve for everybody.
It could be an option in the settings to toggle the "gaming" mode for 3D view!
Cheers!

I wish for this feature every time I use the Virtual Visitor. It would be super appreciated! :)
You can move sideways with alt + left arrow and alt + right arrow.
It's indicated in the help and in the page about shortcuts.
