The Hidden In-game Macro

[worldstrider]

No--it was not npc style chat--not the hail button. It was a phrase like "Hi buddy" or something that you would say to a player.

Never heard of that before, maybe I'll push some buttons around and see...

"This is......travelling from the....system....We're on patrol to the.....system"

The most useless button in Freelancer hands down.:dry:

"Three o'clock is always too late or too early for anything you want to do."

[Seth Karlo]

True, but still a pretty cool show of what FL can do.

Oh... Wow... I feel silly.

Hmmm, has anyone tried reading the key map ini? That might help us find the hidden button(s), although it isn't written out like "A = Strafe Left." But it wouldn't hurt to look...

The hail button...while I don't know the key for it...it is the satellite looking thing above your scanner list. Click on an NPC then click the button and they tell you what they are friggin up to...or...in the case of non-vanilla NPCs in non-vanilla systems;

"This is......travelling from the....system....We're on patrol to the.....system"

"Proceed three!"

EDIT: I stand corrected, the ini file (UserKeyMap) is written out in a way that if you messed around with it enough you could figure out the buttons.

For example:

Code:

[KeyCmd]
nickname = USER_WARP
key = 74,ALT

[KeyCmd]
nickname = USER_SCREEN_SHOT
key = 44

ALT is pretty straight forward while key 44 is something you would have to look up. Also, does anyone know what USER_WARP could mean?

[Seth Karlo]

Haven't a clue.

Hand's up who reckons he dreamt it?:P

Tinkerbell, are you using a progammable mouse (or keyboard) by chance?

T = Key 85
U = Key 86
W = Key 87

etc...

Though, don't ask me what Key 13 or something like that is.:P

Yeah, its something of a logic problem. But I guess if anyone wants to try to figure out what USER_WARP is just change the key to something you know.
