Trying to map hotkeys UI actions.

Frontier359 · 03-05-11, 04:00 AM

I'm trying to map hotkeys to GUI buttons; things you'd find when clicking through officer portrait menus -- weather report, nearest visual contact, depth under keel, etc.

I found and opened the file responsible for this: 'Commands_en.cfg'.

This is an example of what I see:

[Cmd1]
Name=Help
Ctxt=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Key0=0x70,,"F1(EN)"

At the top of the file it says:

"KeyX = an entry containing <key_code>,<flags chars>,<help text id>"

My question:

Where would I find a list of key codes that the game will recognize?

And here I thought I'd have to manually hex/hax the guts of that file. This is brilliant. Than you very much.
