| Summary | 0006403: Add modifier button or key | ||||
| Description | Add option to make a button or keyboard key into a modifier button, similar function as a control key (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_key) normally has on a keyboard. This is particularly useful when playing with a gamepad and the user wants to map as many functions as possible to the buttons. The support of a modifier button would expand the number of functions that can be mapped. For example: A player may have a "Logitech F310" (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Logitech_F310) and want to use the Logitech-button as a modifier and then set: * modifier+A: Sheathe weapon * modifier+B: Circle weapon * modifier+X: (default empty) (the X button is attack as default, and a player that is fighting and alternating pressing X and manipulate/parry button may inadvertently press both at the same time thus making it inconvenient to map anything to modifier+X if player also want to use manipulate/parry button as the modifier) * modifier+Y: Draw weapon * <del>modifier+right_analogue_stick: Manipulate/rotate object</del> (Parry/Manipulate is used for that) * modifier+left_button: Toggle lantern * modifier+right_button: Toggle compass * modifier+up_button: Toggle spyglass * modifier+down_button: Circle maps (aka toggle map) * modifier+back_button (aka "select_button") (hold): Quickload (Currently, the hold back_button/select_button is Quicksave so it makes sense to put Quickload on the same button when used with modifier) * tap modifier: "Cancel current action" (proposed in 0006404) (For a gamepad with similar buttons but no Logitech-key, consider using "back"/"select"-key as modifier as default and then move that buttons current default functions Quicksave+Objectives to modifier+button_start.) Proposal: * Add attribute label "Modifier key" and let user set its value, same as for how setting current keys work. * Allow current manipulate/parry key to be the modifier key if the user wants that. * Adjust how current listening works so that when listening for which button/key a user wants to use and the modifier is pressed, then wait for the second button/key to be pressed, and then map that combination to the function. * Consider adding the above example as default values. | ||||

Lower priority since it appears this may possibly already exist, but its use is hampered by 0006401. |
