FALLOUT 4 ASSIGN HOTKEY PATCH
I tried to play X-Com on a friend's rig after being entirely used to playing with a patch that added hotkeys and it was like hell.
The bigger problem is when there are no/few hotkeys to begin with. Still, from what I can tell there isn't a great reason to make hotkeys impossible to change. No big deal, I wrote an AHK script and remapped them all anyway. Nothing like Star Craft, please - but a decent way to access my inventory and other vital interface options and panels and to toggle key behaviours.įallout: Tactics is another excellent example of hotkey use, despite an unaffiliated dev team - coincidentally?Įxcept they were hard-coded and couldn't be changed. Why worry about a quicksave key when 'Esc>S' took me straight there, where the cursor keys and enter allowed me to select any slot, tag it, type a name, and confirm the save, kicking me straight back into gameplay. I was discussing this with a friend a few days back - Fallout's fantastic hotkey system was probably the best I've encountered for neatly allowing me one or two stage access to everything. I think it's counter-intuitive, especially when Esc normally brings up the Save/Load/Preferences/Quit menu. One other thing about hotkeys that has been annoying me on my latest playthrough of Fallout 2 (and I'm not sure if it's an issue the vanilla game had, or if it's because of the brilliant Restoration Project) but you can bring up the inventory by pressing I, but you can't make the inventory go away again with I, instead you have to either click Cancel, or press Esc.
I wouldn't have even thought about hotkeys, but now that it's been brought up I can definitely agree with what erbgor says about Jagged Alliance 2. Personally I use only a few hotkeys in most games, unless it's a strategy game which has lots of different commands that need to be issued constantly. I'll second that tooltips (or menu selections) showing hot keys are very helpful, I don't know why all games don't do that. Hotkeys: Assign all actions a hotkey, in the name of all things holy.
