i Change shortcut

1 year, 11 months ago

I don't see how to change the key (ENTER by default) to deploy/enter the motorcar next to rails! The problem is that multiple times I parked a spidertron next to rails and I'm unable to enter again. Always when I pressed ENTER, I enter the motorcar, not the spidertron! Would be better if we can configure the shortcut key, then I could choose another that don't collide with the key for entering vehicles!

Thanks

You got the same issue if the spidertron is standing on top of a normal locomotive, or a car.

But I will look into it. Maybe I could not create the motor car if the spidertron is selected.

A configurable shortcut has the following problem: if you press <other key> to enter the motor car - do you also exit it with that key? And also exit it with <enter>? Now you have two buttons with the same functionality... etc...

I'm thinking about don't user 'ENTER' to interact with this mod... Not hardcoded, at least... The key that the user choose will be used to enter / exit the motor car.

Thanks.

What you mean by "spidertron is selected"? In my case, I was trying to enter the spidertron near me. I don't have it selected!

I meant "selected with the cursor".
But with 0.3.3 I modified it to prefer a spidertron standing on top of the rails over creating a motor car.

Regarding the shortcut: I did not program an explicit "enter the vehicle" logic, but use the regular "enter vehicle"-Command from the base game.
I simply create a new locomotive which is then entered by the base game - that way there is no point of failure. And I would like to keep it that way.
