Assigning controls

[Careless]

Hi,

I have this question;

how can I assign arrows keys to control the turret on land vehicles (and perhaps the cannon/FLIR on helicopters/jets).
I know you should do it by editing the control.con, but I have no idea which line represent the movement of the mouse.

Neither I know what ID the arrow keys have to assign to.

I think it's this one
"ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIYaw IDFKeyboard IDKey_D IDKey_A 0"


I hope this is in the right sub-forum.

Thanks

Look for

Code: Select all

ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_GIMouseLookX IDFMouse IDAxis_0 0 0
ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_GIMouseLookY IDFMouse IDAxis_1 0 0

and/or

Code: Select all

ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookX IDFMouse IDAxis_0 0 0
ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookY IDFMouse IDAxis_1 0 0

The first should be for controlling mouse in menus (e.g. spawn menu) and the second for actual ingame.

try adding those:

Code: Select all

ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookX IDFKeyboard IDKey_ArrowRight IDKey_ArrowLeft 1
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookY IDFKeyboard IDKey_ArrowUp IDKey_ArrowDown 1

That should make the arrow keys alternative input for controlling your view. This however will be for all vehicles, not sure if you can make it just landvehicle specific
