Shift + 1/2/3

[deano13]

Mainly aimed at melee I guess but has anyone managed to solve the holding shift + pressing 1 thingy? As it stands if you hold shift and press 1/2/3 to say pot (whilst in PvP as a war when your close to target) it brings up the chat bar and ! instead of potting, now I know Artificial solved this issue on there server (thank you guys for that great experiance) but every other server hasn’t, I’ve pissed about with the Ingame keybinds even changing it so when pressing shift + 1/2/3 etc it should pot but it doesn’t work -.- so was wondering if there’s a work around out there that someone has come up with and if so please share it with me

i added an option to turn key modifiers off

It's already built in to the key bind dialog, you just need to change the key bind to "strict" mode.

When its not strict the key bind you set for pressing 1 also allows Ctrl + 1, or Alt + 1 or Shift + 1. When in strict mode and you set it then it'll only work when only 1 is pressed.

Looking at the existing keybind.ini the belt is already setup correctly so you only pot when 1 is pressed on its own. If you don't want it like this, then just untick "strict" mode and set the keybind again.

RequireAlt=0
RequireShift=0
RequireTilde=0
RequireCtrl=0
RequireKey=D1

Pretty sure its not that simple.. i'm sure is/was custom logic around handling chat input when a user presses keys like ! (shift and 1 on UK keyboard)

The normal request is usually that people DON'T want the belt slot to be used when you're holding SHIFT. As previously if you pressed SHIFT + 1 to type "!" it would use bag slot 1. This was requested many times and so the default was changed so if you pressed SHIFT + 1 it wouldn't trigger the belt slot 1, and instead you could only press "1" on its own to trigger the belt. This sounds like correct logic to me.

If Deano wants the opposite, and wants the belt to trigger when either "1" on its own is pressed, or Shift + 1 is pressed - then the keybind can be changed in to relax mode, but yes it will likely also trigger the chat panel.

That sounds like strange logic though, how would you differentiate between knowing that you need to use your belt slot, and you needed to press "!". Only thing i can think of would be remove the feature of auto enabling the chat box and only allow it when you've already pressed enter to focus it. Which i expect would also annoy people who don't want to use it that way.


You code snippet is identical to the public source btw, unless you've got logic elsewhere that will focus and type in the chat box when shift + 1 is pressed.

I think having to press enter first is probably preferable to most people rather than having the chat box activate when you're potting it pvp and ending up with a string of 111111111113333331116dead

We've all been there

That is the default code in your repo, however in our code - we disabled that line:




Its probably more preferable to perhaps add a toggle to the MirConfig.Ini to give people the choice. (that's one thing on my list to do anyway!)

People definitely have different preferences on this though.

Or even if only the right shift key triggered it and the left one didn't..?

i used a setting for the options page

When its not strict the key bind you set for pressing 1 also allows Ctrl + 1, or Alt + 1 or Shift + 1. When in strict mode and you set it then it'll only work when only 1 is pressed.

Looking at the existing keybind.ini the belt is already setup correctly so you only pot when 1 is pressed on its own. If you don't want it like this, then just untick "strict" mode and set the keybind again.

So where do I find this strict mode so the belt triggers when holding shift

 

[Netskee]

Keybinds menu

 

[deano13]

Keybinds menu

I see nothing about changing this setting? Where isit :S

 

[Far]

It's the only tick box at the bottom which says strict mode

I’m guessing the server I’m playing “TheEnd”doesn’t have that option :/

 

[Far]

If they have the dialog they'll have that option - its been built in from day 1 of me adding it.

If they don't have the dialog just change the keybind.ini manually.

This is strict mode

[Belt1]
RequireAlt=0
RequireShift=0
RequireTilde=0
RequireCtrl=0
RequireKey=D1

this is relaxed mode

[Belt1]
RequireAlt=2
RequireShift=2
RequireTilde=2
RequireCtrl=2
RequireKey=D1

this before logging in and running the patcher or after logging in?

 

[Far]

you can only change the ini files when you don't have the client running.

 

[deano13]

you can only change the ini files when you don't have the client running.

soon as you log in though it just reverts back to what you call relaxed mode, it doesn’t stay :/

 

[Far]

It's not meant to.

You set it to relaxed mode, then update the key binds you want to change - and they'll now all be set to relaxed until you rebind them.

Maybe it’s just this server But it definitely doesn’t stick and the keybinds don’t work, so it’s back to 1111!!!!!!1111!!!!!
