I use ctrl to crouch, not c. I'm so sick of accidentally hitting ctrl-q and causing my game to close. (Yes I know crouch is a toggle), I was really hoping Trion would fix this with Patch today.....apparently not. Any one else have problems with damn fingers accidentally hitting ctrl-q?
Ctrl+Q = Quit??
How did I not know this?
Seriously, that's going to save me so much time going forward.Originally Posted by Misguidance
Best shortcut Evar!
im right there with you. i have quit out on accident a dozen time easly. i remap the ctrl key to crouch too, so i can sprint and crouch with my pinky, the way god intented us to use it. trion will never change this as it is a common key mapping to many computer games across the board for years. we will just keep being punished for our heavy handed play style.
I agree that ctrl + q should not quit the game, and that should be changed by the developers, but there is a workaround if you are willing to download a key remapping program.
www.autohotkey.com
This program allows you to remap your keyboard keys globally or when certain windows are active.
Adding this block to the Auto Hotkey script file will allow you to remap Left Control to Right Shift when the Defiance Client window is active:
#IfWinActive Defiance Client
LCtrl::RShift
#IfWinActive
You can use Auto Hotkey to remap any keys within any programs. It is very handy in cases such as this when there are undesirable key bindings that can't be remapped within the program. It is very convenient.
Hope that helps!
I mapped Ctrl to crouch immediately and after 90 hours of gameplay I haven't accidentally quit once.
Ctrl + Q is used to close a number of programs on Linux (and possibly other non-Windows systems).
I have been acclimated to WQES movement for quite a few years (picked up from the wow strafe keybinds). I tend to bind sprint to to LCtrl because I can hit it with my palm while moving. So sprinting and strafing left quits the game for me... sucks, but what I linked can help with that issue.
haha this has happen to me a couple of times
