| Hey all,
Really liking MUSH, however I am using a laptop that does not have a numeric keypad. Hence I would like to use the cursor keys for my 'N,S,E, & W' movement.
When I go into the input 'Key mapping' properties I don't see where I can do this.
Might anyone have some insight into how to use my cursor 'arrows' to accomplish this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks. | | Top |

| Looks like you can use the Accelerator() scripting function. I tried it myself, and you can't really just use the arrow keys on their own, but you can easily use alt+<direction> instead. Put this into your scripting file, for example:
Accelerator("Alt+Up", "n")
Accelerator("Alt+Down", "s")
Accelerator("Alt+Left", "w")
Accelerator("Alt+Right", "e")

| | Correct. Go to Input menu -> Key Name and start pressing keys to find the "official" name for a keystroke. |
