macro on arrow key
|
hi, ive been wanting to place my attack macros on the arrow keys. used to do this on zmud but now cmud doesnt seem to like it so ive put them on my insert/del/home/end keys
is there a way to assign macros to the standard up/down/left/right (not the num pad arrows)
thanks |

Can't assign macros to keys that are reserved/have definition at the OS level. It's part of the compliancy aspect that Zugg is maintaining in CMud.

Not sure where that information comes from, because I was able to do:
| Code: |
| #KEY RIGHT {#SAY Testing.} |
and press the right arrow key for it to work.
Therefore just do #KEY UP, #KEY DOWN, #KEY LEFT, and #KEY RIGHT.

That only works if you enable the "Allow ANY key to be a macro" option. With that option enabled, you can even assign macros to the alphanumeric keys, like "A".
However, this is totally NOT RECOMMENDED. For example, assigning macros to the arrow keys will prevent you from using the arrow keys to move the cursor to edit your command line, or will prevent the command line recall history features from working. It's just a bad idea. But yes, you can do it if you really need it using the option mentioned above. |

No, the forums haven't been changed in many years. I'm not aware of any posts being deleted.
