| Summary | 0006408: Allow changing gamepad control for moving object closer and further away | ||||
| Description | Currently an object can be moved closer or further away via manipulate+scroll_mouse when using keyboard and mouse. On a gamepad, a player can rotate objects via manipulate+right_stick, and they can move objects closer and further away by tapping down and up on the gamepad's directional pad (holding down on the D-pad will drop object on the ground). This is not apparent from the file DarkmodPadbinds.cfg. Since (when the player holds an object is in front of them) manipulate+right_stick controls rotate, then it may be more intuitive if manipulate+left_stick (rather then tap up and tap down on the directional pad) controls distance from player: This would make analogue sticks control all player movements, and manipulate+analogue sticks control all objects movements. Also, it would reduce the risk of the player inadvertently dropping the object on the ground. Proposal: * Update DarkmodPadbinds.cfg to make this behavior explicit and changeable (mentioned in 0006443). * Update wiki to document rotate and change distance of objects: https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Bindings_and_User_Settings * (Optional) Consider changing default so that manipulate+left_stick_down will move objects closer and manipulate+left_stick_up move objects further away. | ||||
