You can change any of these in Options → Controls → Key Binds → Transformer.

Key	Action
R	Transform between robot and vehicle mode
Z	Get your guns out, or put them away
G	Get your melee weapon out, or put it away
V	Special ability (robot mode) or headlights (vehicle mode)

Fighting

To shoot, get your guns out, keep your main hand empty and left-click. Hold it down to keep firing. For melee, get your weapon out and left-click to swing.

Shooting uses a little Energon, about one shot in four, and you can’t shoot once your Energon bar is down to two icons.
