Updated Keyboard Graphic

Post by Willard »

Any chance you guys will be releasing the updated keyboard graphic with the re-configured commands?

Additionally, how does one add the "short retreat" command to the keyboard commands?
My efforts have failed miserably, demonstrating once again that modding is not anything I should go near.

Thanks!

The graphic was actually supposed to be in the beta patch but somehow it fell through the cracks. It'll definitely be in the final patch.

As far as the short retreat, the command is called getaway.. That goes in the function column for the keyboard.csv

Yessir. If you open the keyboard.csv, you can see there is a column for Name, Key, and Func. Name would be Getaway (or whatever you want), Key would be the key you want of course, and Func would be getaway.

thanks. One more (maybe stupid) question: does it function only with regiments or also with brigades?
