Author	Topic: Keyboard inp file conflicts
Da Jug head Pilot	posted 08-18- 09:59 PM Somebody asked "why bother". Here's one reason. The following commands conflicted and were settled lights- shift L and V, Shift L was used as V is for tilting an engine and something that new will more than likely have nav lights. cmdBrakesLocked was asigned Shift B, but this command is already used for wheel brakes on. the command is now cmdBrakesLocked =Ctrl B Last, are these two the same command with different wording? cmdDBrakeToggle = X cmdDiveBrakesToggle = X If so, from now on please use the spelled out version (cmdDiveBrakesToggle) Ronin, I'm sending you the keyboard file, can you update the reference card? Don't worry about including the file, as it's going in a download with the startup.ppf, and servers.dat file [This message has been edited by Da Jug head (edited 08-18-2001).] IP: Logged

ArgonV JAG	posted 08-19- 12:08 AM Simple fact is there are too many commands for each one to have its own letter. They are going to conflict! But as long as the one aircraft doesnt use them both then you are ok. IP: Logged

Raider Pilot	posted 08-19- 09:55 AM If we had a standard keyboard.inp then plane builders could just build off that. The plane builder can name the command for a dof anything they want. Each builder does not have to create a new key command everytime they add something new. If I want to use the key "W" to start the windshield wiper I don't have to add a new line to the keyboard.inp like cmdwindshieldwiper = W I just name the dof "cmdWingFoldToggle" which is already in the keyboard.inp Then I put in the readme.txt "If you want to use the windshield wipers press 'W'." If this craft has folding wings, then pick another letter to use for the wipers. IP: Logged
Da Jug head Pilot	posted 08-19- 10:39 AM Other than Ronin, who has the template for the reference sheet, don't worry about asking for it. I need to make one more pass through the startup.ppf, and keyboard.inp file, then these 2 plus the servers.dat and updated missionseditor.ppf file will be posted as a single downloadable file. (Self extracting zip of course) [This message has been edited by Da Jug head (edited 08-19-2001).] IP: Logged
