Hi

Is there a key that will take you straight to the attack map rather than having to the Nav map first?

Thanx

Not sure about vanilla, but mine is set for 't'.

How did you set that?

No, there is no key to take directly to Attack map.

If you look in OrdersBar.cfg, the action that takes you to Attack map is called Attack_2D_map. In Commands.cfg, that command (number 34) has no key defined to it (actually it has the old SH3 key (F6), but is commented). All you have to do is to change that line.

PS: the T key is normaly assigned to take you to the torpedos' station.

Hi

Exactly what do you type to change this?

Is this the section you change?

Button2Type=Checkbox
Button2CommandWhenClicked=Attack_2D_map
Button2CommandToCheckIfIsChecked=Is_Attack_2D_map_ station_Active
Button2IconRowColumn=2,2
Button2Tooltip=5613


If so what text do you alter?

Thanx

I mentioned the OrdersBar.cfg just to indicate where to look for the command the buttons send to the game.

When you want to configure the command, you have to look into and change Commands.cfg:

[Cmd34]
Name=Attack_2D_map
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F020009
;Key0=0x75,,"F6"
Page=0x32000000,3741

will become

[Cmd34]
Name=Attack_2D_map
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F020009
Key0=0x75,,"F6"
Page=0x32000000,3741

This change will enable F6 to activate AttackMap. This is not ok, since F6 is used to switch to DeckGun.

0x75 is the hexa code for F6.

If you want to use normal letters, then you specifiy the ASCII code for that letter. The letter A has an ASCII code of 65 which is 0x41 in hexa.

PS: be careful when you modify any of these files: i see you accidentaly inserted a space inside Is_Attack_2D_map_station_Active . This will cause the button not to work anymore.
