Hitting the wrong keys by accident

Could you share HOW to do that? I have zero intrest in that mod. I just want to switch to CTRL-ENTER, that's all.

I've hit the "dive" button while on time compression, and had my career end 3 seconds later.

Never had this problem with SHIII. I guess those TC safeguards are a good idea.

In the keymap config file:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\Data\Cfg\Commands.cfg

I absolutely must always change these two...

[Cmd6]
Name=Time_compr_normal
Ctxt=1,2,6,9
Key0=0x0D,,"Enter"

[Cmd313]
Name=Fire_torpedo
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x0D,c,"Ctl+Enter"

The first will bind your numpad enter key to 1x time compression. The second allows you to still launch a torp with Ctrl+Enter.

So if I understand this correctly, The second one redefines the enter key on the numpad to reduce TC - Time Compression - to 1 instead of firing a torpedeo?

If so, that is a TORPEDEO LIFE SAVER for me. I can't remember the amount of times I accidently launched a torpedeo when touching the wrong key!

I understand the first one.

If that is the case, MANY THANK YOU's!

Same for SH3 I assume?

Try typing whilst not wearing boxing gloves. Works for me every time.

The torpedo fix fireing key ( same in SH3 ),

[Cmd313]
Name=Fire_torpedo
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x0D,c,"Ctl+Enter"

probably should be a sticky by its self as this has been in many, many posts since SH3 was barely off the shelves.

How about it Moderators ?

EDIT: Command found here for those whom did not know:

Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the pacific\Data\Cfg\Commands Cfg File

Yes, works the same way for both.
