wkRemapKeys question

[MrChips]

I managed to map my function keys f1,f2... but I can't seem to map backspace and right click. I tried using codes #2 and #8 but it's not working out. Am I using the correct codes?

As i know you can remap only the standard keys with that tool. it didnt work for me either to replace the keys i use to rope.
Btw remapping right click? just learn the shortkeys for the weapons

You can't remap mouse keys. And the backspace button is supposed to work, it's called "Backspace" I think.

btw i made a quick keyremapper tool last days, because i reinstalled windows and couldn't find any good remapper which would work.. so stay tuned, maybe i will share that tool ^^

GreatRemapper?  Would be nice.

Maybe it will be called "RemapShark." Who knows?

Why Shark?

Why not use autohotkey? It even maps Mouse - if you whant.

I use it for mapping Space to the left WinKey, because Space doesn't always work.
It also helps me with typing !ammo baz inf, !crate ban 0 etc.

my worms.ahk

LWin::
   SetKeyDelay, 50
   Send, {Space down}
   Send, {Space up}
return

^h::
    Send {!}ammo baz inf
   Send,{Enter}
    Send {!}crate ban 0
    Send,{Enter}
   Send {!}ammo drill inf
    Send,{Enter}
   Send {!}fuse {?}
    Send,{Enter}
   Send {!}aquasheep on
    Send,{Enter}
return


...it is important to use up and down with keydelay in game - just "send, {Space};" i.e. doesn't work

"Delay" I think that's a cheat.

"Delay" I think that's a cheat.

...it acts just as my normal SpaceKey would. It's just that AHK sends the keys for a too short time without delay.
i.e.
send, {Space};
would sometimes result in shoot, sometimes not.

Think if that's really considered cheating you'd have to bann certain Keyboards and other hardware related things.
imo it's simmilar to not considering /arrows cheating (because then a larger monitor with better resolution would also be cheating).


I think cheating would start, where somebody uses double pressed Space for one key to get a Liero like rope or something.
I tried that [offline] out of curiosity - doesn't make you better. I sometimes see people using things like that failing a lot of times =)

Why not use autohotkey?

Because the purpose of wkRemapKeys is integration with the game. The game's code is updated directly, we don't send any inputs via external programs (which, by the way, can take a while before their input comes through to the game, as they're in a separate process - the main reason why integrated solutions are better). Therefore, all key inputs are synchronous, and pressing remapped keys is as momentary as pressing non-remapped keys.
Another thing is that, since the module updates the game's code, it has access to determining whether the chat is open and whether we are currently in-game. Thus, wkRemapKeys does its work only during the game and doesn't affect chatting. And while you could create pageUp/pageDown triggers in an AHK script, it's never synchronized because you never know what state the chat is currently in, and how it was/will be when a round ends or starts, or how many times you pressed the buttons, etc. This problem doesn't exist with an integrated solution.
If mouse remapping is needed, the module could be extended to support that feature.

Yeah, true. And it's great (thx). Sadly no 3.6.31 and therefore PX-support... with Steam version I use wk...

You are cool! Suggested ahk because of the mouse support - underestimated your caring (and my esitmation was high from what I hear).

Use the WK! =)
