Permanent crouch key ?


(RasteRayzeR) #1

I cant help but notice the crouch key C must be held down to stay in crouch mode, which can be annoying for some classes like the sniper (where I like to be able to move fast with the D key in case it gets too hot).

What do you think about having a permanent crouch when the C key is pressed, and crouch is released upon new C key stroke ?

Would it be fit for all classes or only maybe only for the sniper and the soldier supporting with the big machine gun ?

You mean toggle crouch? I can’t remember if there’s an option to enable it in the options.

There’s an option to select between hold and toggle crouch.

Really ? I have to check again then …

On controls screen and scroll to pretty much the bottom.

I just wanna add something here. I think the toggle options are kind of the dumbest “why didn’t anyone think of this in the last 10 years” thing to have in an FPS.

It’s so much more convenient… why didn’t anyone think of doing it sooner!?!

Um… I’m not too sure what you’re trying to say. Toggle crouch options have been in shooters for quite a while.

I agree with you that toggle crouching is a great option to have though.

… the way it’s presented in the options as a Toggle = Yes/No. It’s a clean way of presenting the various keybinds that are a question of to-toggle-or-not in an FPS…

Ideally I’d be able to bind one key for the push-to action and another key to the toggle action.


(zenstar) #11

Oh yes. I see what you mean now.
I remember having to fiddle with config key bindings back in the day to get it to work as a toggle.
Things are much clearer nowadays thankfully :slight_smile:

Thought I would add to this thread rather than make another. :wink:

I like to crouch toggle, but also want to come out of crouch if I sprint or jump or press the crouch key again which the ingame toggle option doesnt do. I came up with a few binds for it (might help someone else out who wants todo the same)

I added these to shooterinput.ini:

Bindings=(Name=“DuckToggleOn”,Command=“setbind C DuckToggleOff | SetCrouch true | Axis aUp Speed=-1.0 AbsoluteAxis=100”,Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False)
Bindings=(Name=“DuckToggleOff”,Command=“setbind C DuckToggleOn | SetCrouch false | Axis aUp Speed=-1.0 AbsoluteAxis=100”,Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False)

then entered these in the console:

setbind SpaceBar “JumpCmd | DuckToggleOff” true
setbind LeftShift “SprintAndBreath | DuckToggleOff” true
setbind C “DuckToggleOn” true

You can probably do this all via the console actually, but whatever I don’t really know what I am doing! :cool:
