| Summary | 0006401: Undefined modifier combination for gamepad in DarkmodPadbinds.cfg results in unexpected and delayed function | ||||
| Description | On a gamepad using the default settings, the left analogue trigger pushed down to maximum captures, stores, and delays functions for the buttons: * A: jump * B: crouch * X: attack * Y: use * Start: esc (go to Main Menu) Sometimes it is possible to store multiple functions, e.g. crouch and attack. According to https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Bindings_and_User_Settings#Gamepad_Default_Bindings a "MODIFIER" is mapped to this trigger (PAD_L2), which is likely the cause of this behavior. This appears to happen when no function is bound to a button combination (e.g. "MOD_PRESS PAD_A"). Also reproduced on TDM 2.12/64 #10584 (beta212-01). Proposed change: * Assure that unbound key press combinations involving the MODIFIER button will do nothing (i.e. ignore the MODIFIER), and not store functions which are then later triggered by just pressing the MODIFIER button. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | * Use gamepad with analog triggers (e.g. "Logitech F310") * Use default control settings, in which the MODIFIER is set to PAD_L2 (the left analogue trigger) * Press left analogue trigger to maximum and hold it down * Tap A (for jump) * Player does not jump (unexpected) * Release trigger * Wait a second * Press trigger to maximum * Player jumps (unexpected) | ||||
| Additional Information | This has the adverse affect that when the left trigger button is used to control player movement type (creep-walk-run), then user cannot run and jump at the same time (as mentioned in 0006402). Workaround: * change the bindings in the file DarkmodPadbinds.cfg, to explicitly set values for these key press combinations by adding one of ** bindPadButton MOD_PRESS PAD_A "_jump" ** bindPadButton MOD_PRESS PAD_A "" The first will make player jump, the second will make player do nothing. | ||||
